Guatemala for a start: fifteen days of silence retreat where EVERYTHING happened. Then re-organising life completely from the possibility of NOT returning to Germany at all. Crazy, new, final, clear, painful, relieving — all of it.

A magic yoga retreat in Costa Rica, back to Guatemala, more meditation seminars and retreats — the decision already made to go "back" to Costa Rica soon.

That turned into five months of surfing, coconuts, brain-fry from crazy Wi-Fi radiation, a month naked on a beach keeping a driftwood fire going, cooking in banana leaves, meeting amazing shining people, building coconut fishing rods from palm leaves, selling bliss-balls at the local market, making a muesli bowl out of a fresh half coconut — jungle stuff like that.

And then being picked up to go to the US for the first time — somewhere I'd never really considered worth travelling to. That invitation became a trip of its own → Roadtrip USA.
