I’m amazed at how easy things feel at the moment and how organic one thing leads to another! Yesterday after my report about 15 years of home education in Louvain-la-Neuve near Brussels, Romain spontaneously invited me to visit the „École Démocratique de l’Orneau“. A tour of the school, a short Alexander Technique demonstration, lovely chats […]

My November has been quite unspectacular so far. For almost three weeks, I have been on “home leave”, so to speak. Going through the post, passing the MOT test with my car, checkup at the dentist, visits to the library – has it really only been five months since I stopped working there? The daily […]

I’m starting to sense myself more and to live my own rhythm.

Who would have thought that I was would be having lunch in the sun on a balcony in Basel in late October in my T-shirt?! Certainly not me, otherwise I would not have made the detour on my way back from France in early September to get my skiing jacket and my winter boots from […]

Almost at the end of my tour, I’m starting a résumé in my head. The encounters and experiences were very enriching. But it was just too much in too short a time. I cannot keep up with processing what I experience. This means I am not always as present as I would like to be, […]

From time to time, people ask me how I can afford to travel and live a nomadic life. I, in return, think: How can you afford to pay rent every month?!

I have walked into Poland! Somehow, I had no idea that you could simply stroll over the bridge here in Görlitz and find yourself in Poland. Granted, I only ventured into the country for 10 minutes and several meters. Apart from the trip to another country, I am surprised by the discrepancy between quite a […]

Ten talks about home education and seven Alexander Technique workshops in September. Wow, that was an intensive month!    

Chard from the garden and mushrooms freshly collected from the woods for supper – what a feast! Thank you, Klein Jasedow, for welcoming me into your community for a week!
