Day 1: The Train Platform
I've been stuffed here since dawn, pressed against a crumpled receipt and a single forgotten mint. My person just boarded a train heading somewhere coastal. The platform smells like coffee and salt. I'm excited.

Seagulls. So many seagulls. A stray napkin joined me briefly—we shared stories about the fish market. Now it's just me again, growing soft from the sea air. Lovely though.
We climbed today. My person's breathing was heavy, their hand sometimes resting on the jacket. I felt the cool alpine breeze, smelled pine and stone. For a moment, I felt part of something bigger than lint and loose change.
The journey ends tomorrow. I've collected so much—memories, dust, the faint perfume of somewhere else. But I'm ready to settle back into stillness, holding these whispers close. What a lovely adventure this was.
