It's interesting how life goes and how fast things change... Something what was bucking you in one moment is suddenly solved or has less priority. And you realise what is really important to you... Many things happened since I wrote my last post which was just a week ago. It cost me a lot to write and open up again. I changed my last post quite a few times. However, I had an interesting encounter with someone who was very eagerly to get to know to me. He found me on Facebook and I accepted his...
I’m so thankful that I have the opportunity through my hikes, yoga classes and tours to get to know to very inspiring and nice people. For example on Saturday I did my third hike with Yoga and meditation and 14 very lovely and inspiring people joined me and shared Yoga, meditation and their personal story with me and the group. It is so much fun for me to connect myself and others and being in nature. Actually after coming back from visiting Germany a week ago I fell into a deep hole... Well,...
A couple of days ago I went with Andrea (the German woman I live with right now) and her cute dogs to a village called Llano Grande in the mountains of Oaxaca. It’s part of an ecotourism project that helps to maintain the forest and integrates the people there. I saw that I needed it badly: connecting with nature and be in a place without any internet connection and in silence. It helped me to rethink some things. During walking through the forest and watching the simple life of the people...
This post is about my short trip back to Barcelona to see someone again who I really like a lot. I just arrived in Germany after 2 years of traveling. I was quite nervous to come back. Actually it was great to be there and I could see my change. Back in Germany stayed in contact with my roommate. He said 3 times that it would be nice if we saw each other once again before I would go back to Mexico. When he said it the first time I was like “But I haven’t planned it”. Second time: “Well,...
Barcelona is shitty! Barcelona is great! My relationship with Barca is quite diverse. It last for more than 8 month and wasn’t my first choice. But when I look back I had a great time there. In this post I tried to summarize my time in Barcelona. In the beginning I had quite a culture shock. I was like a rabbit in a corner; unable to move. Until I remembered why I came back and stood up again. By the way: The trickiest situations during my journey I had in Barcelona. However, in Barcelona I...
After 2 years of being abroad I am back in Germany in Münster. I was quite nervous to come back. How would it be after 2 years? How am I now? In addition it wasn’t easy to leave Barcelona. In the last weeks, especially when quit my job in the CallCenter, I realized that I had a life there. I lived there for more than 8 month.I made very lovely friends in Barcelona and I lived the last 2,5 month with lovely people together who became like a family for me. And I met someone who I like a lot......
I have a little ritual that I do always on the 1st of January since I was 14 years old. For every year I use a small agenda and write on the first page a motto and affirmations for the coming year and I read again my motto and affirmations from the last year and reflect it. I love doing it and I always look forward to write the first sentence in my agenda. My recent New Year’s reflection brought me to the following thoughts I would like to share with you. It’s about following our dreams and...
It might be a little early for a review of 2015 but I had the urgent need to write my following thoughts down. This year was or rather is the year of friendships for me. I learnt to appreciate friendship and what a gift it is to have friends with whom I feel connected with and understood. I just realized a couple of days ago how amazing it is to know that I have friends in Germany who are actually waiting for me and think of me. As well I am always happy if I receive a lovely message from one...
From 6th of April to 1 of May 2015: I arrived in the early morning in San Cristobal de las Casas where I had already a workaway place in a hostel. Back in San Cris I stayed exactly one night at my workaway place and left it on the next morning due to an interesting night… and found immediately another place. This great “coincidence” brought me together with a very lovely and brave girl from Russia. And guess what… The first person I bumped into was my loco Mayan warrior! I had a crazy...
I decided to go back to Oaxaca when the homesickness hit me very badly in Porto Escondido. I needed to do normal things and ground a bit. That was in February 2015. I went back into the hostel “Azul Cielo” in Oaxaca where I already knew some very nice people. I felt a kind of home there. And I love Oaxaca! It is a very nice city. There I stayed for two weeks, gave Yoga classes at Azul Cielo, did a jewelry course, attended with some friends Ernesto’s concert and colored my hair into my...
