Anticipating that I would wake up early, I had the naive idea of going surfing at 7am, when it is low tide 😂 The sun shines through the gaps between the wooden planks of my little hut. I feel happy and full of energy. It is past 9am and I have not slept this long …

Bali – finally!! I have been waiting for this since October…. it was my goal after chemo! I never knew, if I would be fit enough to go, if I would actually go, but it kept me going…. I have been to many countries working on the ships and being a happy traveller, but Bali …

Hera arrived late last night, but we went for a beer at the waterfront, chatted forever and saw the New Years fireworks! The view from the 19th floor is amazing, I meditate with the rising sun in my face and spend the morning at the pool chatting away – pure bliss! The funny thing with …
