In search of old footprints-Zagreb
7. lokakuuta 2022, Kroatia ⋅ ⛅ 17 °C
Zagreb where I lived for 2 years in 2003. Walking in the streets we slowly put together our memories to find where my appartment was and where I used to jog in the mornings. Ilica 10a near the market😃
Visited our favourite Sushi "Takenoko" which still existed after 20 years but in a new location with the cook being the only connection to the past.
But the same tables and the same delicious food🤩Lue lisää

And finally we have left, !
6. lokakuuta 2022, Saksa ⋅ ⛅ 17 °C
We have finally left!
I don't believe it!
The stress of these last weeks that seemed to be getting worse and worse is past!
Getting a house ready for 7 months of absence over winter actually felt like moving house to a new address. You know that feeling where the moving van is booked for a certain day and the appartment has to be handed over to the owners, and you still haven't started packing the first box. That's what it felt like!
But now we are gone!Lue lisää

Real shepheards still do exist
8. huhtikuuta 2022, Portugali ⋅ ☁️ 20 °C
Was witnessed to a real shepherd. When pushing on his flock, a small lamb kept on falling behind, so he picked it up and carried it. My heart melted ❤️
Then big JOE the daddy goat 🐐 decided he prefers to stay here.After having called it several times, he spoke I a quite voice to his dog walking next to him. Immediately the dog ran the 100m to the goat and started running in circles around it barking in a way that would have made my heart freeze if I had been the goat. It tried to charge him a few times and then gave up an trotted to the rest of the heard. The dog ran back to his master and walked on his side.
WOW! What a theater!!!!Lue lisää

Camping in gods garden
7. huhtikuuta 2022, Portugali ⋅ ☀️ 15 °C
This evening I walked I to a future commune project in the making, "monte do aniche" to be found in facebook.
Two persons have bought 100Ha of Land with huge eucalyptus forests which they are now cutting down to replant indigenous trees and shrubs. All over they have constructed water retention basins aimed at raising the water table and regreening the area. In a next phase they want to invite people looking to live in a sustainable way to join them.
Sounds really exciting!
One thing is for sure, I have never heard such a Night concert of cricets. (See recording)Lue lisää

This kind of day makes my heart leap
7. huhtikuuta 2022, Portugali ⋅ ☀️ 17 °C
Today I have been walking through the wildest of landscapes along sheep tracks and fire breaks in the middle of a nature untouched. Ancient Cork oaks, hundreds of years old looking like the "tree of life" in the film "Avartar" make my heart jump with joy. This beauty still exists on our troubled planet. WOW! ❤️
I am totally in my element, my heart overspilling with joyLue lisää

Stopped for lunch and then.....
1. huhtikuuta 2022, Portugali ⋅ 🌙 13 °C
Never drink a bottle of wine for lunch while waiting for low tide, because you end up with your legs up.
So this is where we are staying the night 😃

What a night, and what a morning!
30. maaliskuuta 2022, Portugali ⋅ ⛅ 14 °C
I was exhausted today and realized that it is crazy for me to not do any excercise for 6 months and then promptly walk 25 kms with a 15kg pack. To make matters worse, as night came the wind got stronger and stronger. We set camp among some small pines hoping to be protected. The contrary was the case, as gale force was reached our tent jumped about with the wind screeching through the trees to then be joined by the snoring of Alexander. The perfect sound background for ghosts to come out, which they did, in the form of excruciating knee and elbow pain, my old fellows from the past.Lue lisää

29. maaliskuuta 2022, Portugali ⋅ ☁️ 16 °C
Wow! What a feeling to be back here, overlooking the sea, listening to the atlantic waves sitting on top of the many cliffs.
Sheer paradise!
But oh oh oh!
My body is screaming. After six months building my Sprinter, my body has completely forgotten how to move and carry loads. But experience has shown, in a day or two, I will be up to speed again.Lue lisää

The Journey starts with the first hole!
10. lokakuuta 2021, Saksa ⋅ ☀️ 8 °C
What an exciting feeling drilling the first hole through the side of your Brand New sprinter!
But we did it!
And then we sawed and hammered, shaping our new baby,.
He's very high, He's very strong, and he simply loves travelling and he's soooo cosy!
Our home on wheels,
our "GYPSY"Lue lisää

The Spirit flies again Michael Spies
I dedicate this Camino to Gregor
28. toukokuuta 2021, Espanja ⋅ ⛅ 17 °C
I dedicate this camino to Gregor.
And to the hero's around Gregor
Some day he might look into this Photobook which I will print, and see written down, and in photos what incredible joy his coming brought to me and others.

The last picture taken on the way to Finisterre shows a pilgrim battling on in the rain and wind, a symbol for the endurance of humans when they have something they believe in which lights their fire.
May Gregor have this resilence and may he find his belief, his Fire and source of energy to take him through his life and have an impact on this world.

In love 😍
May God bless him ❤Lue lisää
