- [The Venice I Remember Was Mostly Water](https://irinaroamsthedot.com/the-venice-i-remember-was-mostly-water/): Away from the grand façades, Venice keeps appearing in reflections: under a bridge, beside a landing, in the wavering light against a wall. Those fragments became my way into a city I thought I already knew from photographs.
- [Kyoto Is Quieter Beside the Kamo](https://irinaroamsthedot.com/kyoto-is-quieter-beside-the-kamo/): A short walk from Kyoto’s busy streets, the river gives the day a different scale. I like the way a bicycle, a row of stepping stones, and the sound of water can make the city feel unhurried without making it feel empty.
- [Lisbon, Between One Tram and the Next](https://irinaroamsthedot.com/lisbon-between-one-tram-and-the-next/): A yellow tram climbs the hill, then disappears around a corner. I’m more interested in the pause it leaves behind: a shaded doorway, a tiled wall, a few unhurried minutes on the way somewhere else.
