Well, it’s not that difficult to see and I don’t have to explain a whole lot (I guess). If you followed our en route pour la joie adventures, you know that this most best human being is known for

When you go something like: Sorry Kiddo, Christmas Eve is Postponed!
That’s kinda how it feels when you are reading your amore’s text message. You haven’t seen your lovely one for more than three and a half months. All eager and bla bla, it seems that the story is just repeating itself. Even though she has an ESTA, the airplane still is soo much delayed that the connecting flight is arivederci, gone.

summer and warmth was the only intention in our year of intentionless intentions.

a voyage like this particular is a well-refined, highly tuned entity. especially since our means of transport, EMMA, is a citröen campster. this car is set up and meant for a weekend family trip, maybe a week long vacation with your beloved at best. not a year of odyssee into nowhere.

nobel chattering
on the tenth day at ten a.m., nobel silence ended. what happened afterwards is hard to describe in words, but no matter how many people take part in such a retreat, for me, every time it feels like being placed in the middle of New York City, Kathmandu downtown, bejing central, in a teacher’s conference, just NOISE and it didn’t quite stop.

on the first three days, we were instructed to observe our respiration. over and over being aware of the sensations on the in-breath and out-breath and the sensation in your nostril and on your upper lip.

I never actually wrote about my vipassana retreat. I have a draft somewhere on my computer going up until day 3 somewhere in the night where the snoring of my fellow vipassana comrades kept me alive the whole night, but I have SOME exciting news:

Continue reading →mainland, we come
after now almost four months of heat, waves and chilling, we are getting ready for the mainland again.
EMMA is parked, we are checking for a last spot to spend the night and then we are on our 31 hours water way back to the mainland. we downloaded the new season of SHADOW AND BONE, stocked up on good food and should be just fine for the cruise back to Huelva.
we spent the last four months surfing, climbing mount Teide with stargazing and monumental sunrise on top, practiced our Astrology skills, went swimming, bricolaged with macrame and recycled skateboards, shook hands on this and that and are pretty much ready for anything and nothing.

nach nun beinahe vier monaten hitze, wellen und chillen machen wir
uns wieder bereit für das festland.
EMMA ist geparkt, wir suchen nach einem
letzten schlafplatz für die nacht, bis es wieder heisst, 31 stunden
wasserweg zurück zum festland. Wir haben die neue staffel von SHADOW
AND BONE im gepäck, haben unsere essensvorräte aufgestockt und
sollten bereits sein für die überfahrt nach huelva.
wir verbrachten die letzten vier monate
mit surfen, auf den teide zu klettern, um dort sterne zu kucken und
einen monumentale sonnenaufgang zu erleben, haben uns in astrologie
geübt, waren schwimmen, haben mit macrame und recycelten
skateboardhölzchen herumgebastelt, haben uns handschläge zu diesem
und jenem gegeben und sind so ziemlich bereit für alles und für
nichts.
and the sunrise, which was something out-of-this-world, really…
