In summer, our bodies seem to finally relax and connect as an active participant in the world around us — think splashing in a pool, reading a book in a hammock or enjoying a cold drink on the porch. The feeling of summer can spring up anywhere there is sunshine, warm weather, a great view, a cold body of water and that sense that a day can last an eternity if you just sit back and let it. The following photos, gathered from dream homes and gardens around the world, capture this sunny sense of place.
