> 「我明天再來，」離開前我這麼跟老闆說。旅行的時候要找到一間適合自己的咖啡館很難，偶爾這樣的咖啡館出現時，都像是在沙漠裡面發現到綠洲一般的珍貴。
> 聽起來很孤單，其實我很享受這種感覺。但是當在旅程中出現這樣一間有機會打破隔閡的咖啡館時，還是讓我很開心。我喜歡獨自旅行中，不經意冒出來那一點點恰到好處的連結。

尾道、咖啡館與花火大會
在尾道這個的小鎮，我發現了一間意外成為我旅程中避風港的咖啡館。隨著交流當中認識了咖啡館老闆與幾個熟客後，逐漸建立了跟這個小鎮的熟悉感。而在花火大會之後，我發現我再也不是個旅客，而是成為明信片畫面裡面的一分子。

The way we interact with apps is changing, so should the way they are designed.
The current state of apps and the advent of Apple Intelligence makes it important to have an action centered design approach to designing apps. The phone is only a part of a much larger ecosystem.

> Here’s a Fun Fact: the Filet-O-Fish was invented specifically to cater to Catholics in the midwest who stopped going to McDonald’s during Lent. Nearby restaurants would also adapt their menus for those forty days to be more seafood-focused. So for a tenth of the year, it was seafood time.
> The circumstances around our childhoods often determine what kind of food we eat and love. In turn, food shapes who we are. It is part of our identities and it reflects the culture we grew up in. There are emotions imbued in the food we eat; memories are brought out when we take a bite. Some of those memories aren’t great. A bad memory may distance you from some foods. But good memories can make you crave certain food.
