How far would the closest body of water be to you @NatureLover?

@Former-Member  Only about an hour and 15 minutes' drive away, but I have agoraphobia. It is moderate, which means I can leave the house, but I can't go far (15 minutes' drive, preferably) and I can't stay out long. 

 

Oh - I was thinking you meant the sea, but you said "body of water"...there is a lake locally I could go to, but I find the sea magical, which lakes aren't (to me).

Yes, at the moment I live rather close to the sea & feel very grateful as I know that won't likely be for maybe too much longer. I am rather connected to the element water & have found living close to it really supportive.

I'm so glad you have the sea nearby at the moment. I'm sorry to hear you may have to move away from the sea in future...I hope not too far, so you can still go and visit it.
