The picture reminds me of fairytales, old, untold secrets, but also of warm summernights next to the ocean under a nightblue sky….actually I took it around 5 o’clock in the morning in Coimbra while we where looking for a place to keep warm until the car rental company would open their doors. But it really feels like a fairytale, to be here in Portugal again, to come back to places which are connected with crazy adventures, which are connected with my journey in autumn 2018…even nothing is the same this time; I’m not on a journey to explore everything new, I’m here with my dad, who’s checking out the last things so my parents can move to Portugal in summer, to the place we all fell in love with. It’s a place full of fairytales and magic, full of strong living-beings with crazy stories, it’s a place in the mountains near the sky, it’s valleys full of fruits and burned trees, it’s coffee in the middle of the village in the morning, it’s the sound of drums, guitars and singing people sitting around the bonfire, it’s the feeling of connected souls, connected, as all of us here escaped the system.

Everything is possible, nothing is sure.
The last week was full of new things, learning and trying, and new situations which made me feel like a first class student again, knowing nothing yet. But I’ll keep learning and trying…and then I’ll decide if I keep going like now or if I quit. So nothing is sure; 2020 definitely will be a year full of changes…However, there are a few things helping me through such days…one of them is hiking. The picture I took at the “Belchen”, a mountain near my home in the Black Forest, where I hiked with a friend yesterday.
When nothing is sure, everything is possible.
Fullmoon
That fullmoon I captured weeks ago in the city where I study…Together with the pumpkin field in the front and the houses in the back, it was a magical view, short before darkness.
About Kasol
Kasol is a small hippiesque village in Himachal Pradesh (Northern India), placed next to a river and surrounded by mountains, forest, and rocks. It’s full of small jewellery shops, restaurants and cafés and attracting hundreds of Hippies from all around the world each day; it’s a beautiful, multicultural place and great to meet up with other backpackers. There used to be many outdoor parties in the forest around but due to some incidents there are no more parties; nowadays Kasol is famous for it’s nature and as a starting point for trekking tours, which can be quite adventurous. Definitely adventurous is the journey to Kasol; from the next bigger village it takes around 1,5 hours in an usually crowded, old bus, on a small, wavy and curvy road (the only!) next to a highslope and a hundred of meters deep valley.
In the mountains
This is me, probably as happy as almost never before, holding the baby dog of a friend I stayed with in the mountains. I definitely will return to that place in Portugal, as I had an unbelievable amazing time there with so lovely people,…but also crazy experiences which made me think a lot and changed my point of view on life…So I’ll write a bigger post about that place and the people there on my other blog as soon as I have enough time…
