Finally, as I neared the age of 60, I decided to change that. I wanted to write about things that were close to my heart: beautiful things.</p> 602<p>So they are a focus of this blog. I could be writing about a formally beautiful object in a museum. But it could also be something sitting quietly on a shelf. Or it could be just a fleeting view that’s caught my eye, or a momentary splash of colour-on-colour at the turn of the road. Or it could be a piece of music I’ve just heard. Or a piece of poetry. Or food. And Iâm sure Iâve missed things.</p> 603<p>But I also write about interesting things that I hear or read about. Isn’t there a beauty about things pleasing to the mind?</p> 604<p>I started just writing, but my wife quickly persuaded me to include photos. I tried it and liked it. So my posts are now a mix of words and pictures, most of which I find on the internet.</p> 605<p>What else about me?</p> 606<p>When I first started this blog, my wife and I lived in Beijing where I was head of the regional office of the UN Agency which I worked for. So at the beginning I wrote a lot about things Chinese. Then we moved to Bangkok, where again I headed up my Agency’s regional office. So for a period I wrote about Thailand and South-East Asia more generally. But we had lived in Austria for many years before moving to China, and anyway we both come from Europe; my wife is Italian while I’m half English, half French. So I often write about things European. After I retired, we came back to Europe so now I write a lot more about the Old Continent, interspersed with posts about places we’ve visited.</p> 607<p>What else? We have two grown children, who had already left the nest when we moved to China, but they still figure from time to time in my posts.</p> 608<p>Iâll let my readers figure out more about me from reading what I’ve written.</p> 609<p>I like trees (my wife always makes fun of me when I go into a trance before a particularly beautiful tree). So I chose a tree – an apple tree, painted by the Austrian painter Gustav Klimt – as my gravatar. And I chose Abellio as my name because he is the Celtic God of the apple tree.</p> 610<p>I hope you enjoy my posts.</p> 611<p><a href="https://theheartthrills.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/apple-tree-i.jpg"><img data-attachment-id="830" data-permalink="https://theheartthrills.com/about/apple-tree-i/" data-orig-file="https://theheartthrills.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/apple-tree-i.jpg" data-orig-size="617,616" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":""}" data-image-title="Apple Tree I" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-large-file="https://theheartthrills.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/apple-tree-i.jpg?w=617" class="size-full wp-image-830 aligncenter" src="https://theheartthrills.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/apple-tree-i.jpg?w=660" alt="Apple Tree I" srcset="https://theheartthrills.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/apple-tree-i.jpg?w=500&h=499 500w, https://theheartthrills.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/apple-tree-i.jpg?w=150&h=150 150w, https://theheartthrills.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/apple-tree-i.jpg?w=300&h=300 300w, https://theheartthrills.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/apple-tree-i.jpg 617w" sizes="(max-width: 500px) 100v
