Have you ever had a peculiar feeling of anticipation when you wait for a loved one to visit? And have you felt that intimate warmth with the one you love, but never really found a word that describes it?

UK based illustrator, Emma Block , has just what you need. Collecting all the beautiful feelings that are part and parcel of the indescribable aspects of love, Emma created a series of illustrations that describe various words from different languages, each telling a story in itself, for a special feature for Vashi .

Here is what the simple, sweet, and bittersweet aspects of love sound like around the world. Expand your vocabulary of love and get all the warm and fuzzy feels with these little stories in pictures.
