      Let's go again

      November 2, 2019 in Nepal ⋅ 🌙 14 °C

      Wir haben uns mit einem guten Frühstück gestärkt und sind dann zu Kess, unserem guide und host für die nächsten Tage.
      Der hat uns erst einmal in einen local bus gesetzt und ist dann selber mit dem Motorrad hinterher gekommen. So langsam hat man sich an die 'Straßen' hier ja gewöhnt. 😆
      Der Busfahrer hat uns dann gezeigt in welches tea house wir uns setzen sollten und dort haben wir bei einem Tee auf Kess gewartet.
      Zu seinem Haus in den Bergen ging es eigentlich nur Stufen hoch! Das ging noch mal schön in die Beine, hat sich aber gelohnt! Man hatte einen tollen Blick über das Tal und die Berge im Hintergrund!
      Das Haus ist echt super schön! Der Blick von hier ist der Hammer! Es gab erst mal einen Kaffee. 🙂
      Hier in Nepal / Asien ist man einfach immer super entspannt und lässt sich durch nichts wirklich stressen.
      Abends haben wir mehr oder weniger zusammen dal bhaat gekocht. Kess hat uns gezeigt wie man es kocht und es war echt super lecker!! Haben wir gut gemacht. 😊
      Der Trip hier hin hat sich jetzt schon gelohnt!      Read more

      A little piece of heaven

      November 3, 2019 in Nepal ⋅ 🌙 12 °C

      Es ist super schön hier!
      Wir sind heute Morgen um 6 Uhr zum Sonnenaufgang aufgestanden. Wir haben uns einen schönen Platz gesucht und mit einem Tee in der Hand die Sonne aufgehen sehen. 🌄
      Kess hat sich dann auf den Weg zum Nachbarn gemacht und frische Eier und frische buffalomilk geholt und dann gab es banana pancakes mit peanut butter! Lecker!
      Wir sind später noch etwas durch das 'village' gelaufen - das Dorf hier hat vielleicht 10 bis 15 Häuser - und haben noch länger die super Aussicht von hier oben genossen!
      Den Rest des Tages haben wir am Haus in der Sonne gechillt! ☀️☀️ Wir haben gelesen, Tee getrunken, Phase 10 gespielt und gequatscht. Herrlich. 😊😊
      Heute Abend gab es wieder leckeren Reis mit Gemüse und wir saßen noch etwas zusammen und haben gequatscht.      Read more

      Just... not enough words

      February 18, 2018 in Nepal ⋅ 🌧 7 °C

      Noo I don't wanna wake up. 6am and no yoga class today. Everything because of amazing trip to the mountains. Finally! Outside of the city.
      We went to saint place of Buddhism to the monastery where Buddha lived one of his lifes. Here he sacrificed himself to mother lion so she can feed her babies and these ones become his followers.
      It's amazing place on the top of the mountain where people are going to visit, meditate in same cave as Buddha and hang the flags with prayers. We also bought some flags and we wanted to hang them. We wrote our wishes and went to the special place. There we met two young boys and they helped us with hanging. But it was amazing. They were climbing on the trees barefoot like a monkeys. So in the end we merged 7 flags together and we also have our footprints on this place.
      After than we had lunch in small village, finally, home cooked food!
      When we get home some of the people still have energy for yoga! So why not, with Sun set, wow...
      And again dinner with monks and the famous rinpoche as yesterday. But this day we had presents for them and also ice cream! You should see their eyes and pure happiness, that's so awesome.
      We finished our evening with one of our rooftop sessions and also rum with honey, mnam!      Read more

      Back to nature

      February 19, 2018 in Nepal ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C

      It's here, we are leaving Kathmandu straight to the nature, actually back to nature, that's the name of the camp.
      The journey wasn't so interesting 8 hours in bus. We survived, that's only important.
      Finally, Pokhara is waiting for us. In the end of the road we met Dambar, amazing person, camp owner and went up to the hill where the camp is. So surrounded by nature in "back to nature" the second part of our trip is beginning. It's just... just tents, trees, nature woooow. Also cold water because the water is heated during cooking. I love it!
      And in the evening we needed some relax. Well... We went to bed around 1 am. Quite a big party with dance, talking about the nature...
      Here you can feel that you're alive.      Read more

      Meditation in the jungle

      February 20, 2018 in Nepal ⋅ ⛅ 22 °C

      Just imagine the feelings when you open your eyes and you're looking directly to Sun rise. I'm sleeping outside! It's just....
      So morning yoga session with Dambar, it's nice I have free time to practice.
      After amazing breakfast we were ready for trekking. We went through the jungle to waterfall, barefoot! And the water was really cold! But, the energy in water, really powerful. And in combination with singing bowls meditation... We were speechless...
      In the afternoon we were supposed to stay in camp but someone wants to go for more hiking, well why not! So one more trip with 4 friends through the jungle.
      When the evening came we were waiting for shaman. Real shaman respected in whole area! He blessed us so now we are protected.
      As yesterday we spent the rest of the evening with laughing, drinking and talking...      Read more

      Trek, visitors and pure happiness

      February 21, 2018 in Nepal ⋅ ☀️ 35 °C

      I love to sleep outside! Rising Sun above large lake, I'm laying covered with blanket and I have to only open my eyes.
      The first thing in the morning is yoga session, of course! And with Dambar it's just, you don't know if you should laugh or cry because it's belly workout.
      After breakfast is time to go! Short trek through the jungle and villages. Just imagine, you're walking and the lady just invites you to her home because it's special. And we got homemade honey! Everybody has feelings to give them everything what we have. The most amazing thing is, they don't need it. They're happy and it's pure happiness in their eyes.
      In the end of the trek we had some energy left with Andrea so we run the stairs back to the camp! It was quite demanding but we made it!
      And people still wanted to practice! Headstands, reverse positions, simply playing with the body. Just imagine that 65 years old man made headstand! The most magical thing was chanting the mantras before. It was outstanding.
      Every time I have feeling that it couldn't be better but... In the evening the locals came to our camp and show us their dance and songs. We were dancing playing games drinking... We have so many things to learn from them...      Read more

      Sleeping in the village

      February 22, 2018 in Nepal ⋅ ⛅ -1 °C

      The morning program is still same, yoga and breakfast. With rising sun, chanting and detox workout!
      After breakfast we had tour through ayurveda garden. Well it's not any special garden it's whole camp! Every tree, every plant has its own meaning and healing powers.
      The main thing of the day is trip to village over the hill. One hour of stairs, love it! In the village we had welcoming program and we were separated into many families. So every small group went with their new householder for meet his family and for a dinner. Our householder was leader of the community. He came back to the village because his father pasted out to take care of his mother. And because he was bored, he create community to help locals develop their own business, homestays, to teach them how to grow new plants, everything. It's so nice! And together their are able to provide food for whole community, repair the roads, selling organic food in city market....
      We were talking a lot but it was time for evening program performed by locals for us. Again traditional dance, songs and we also met Nepal top comedy actors. in the end was time for us! We sign as a one man and two couples were dancing polka. Proper representation of the Czechia!
      Now when I'm writing this footprint I know that the dinner should be skipped...Well, food poisoning in Nepal.. I just have to try everything.      Read more

      Back to the camp

      February 23, 2018 in Nepal ⋅ 🌙 23 °C

      Aaa morning... well what can I say. I knew I shouldn't ate the last piece of the chicken on my plate... We went to visit local school, all children were standing there singing songs, dancing and also we had gifts for them. And I was occupying toilet for a whole time...
      The worst was we had to go back to camp and in my state. And also there were steep stairs, rain during the night, just awesome.
      But still. When I saw pictures of children...Again the pure happiness in their eyes.
      The best moment came in the evening. One woman of our group has decided to help to small girl from local village. This child doesn't have parents and her uncle is drinking.. and I was middleman. We settled some conditions and we made a deal! I have to admit I was crying when I saw happiness in their eyes..

      Panchase peak

      February 24, 2018 in Nepal ⋅ ☁️ 6 °C

      Today we're going to big trip. We had to wake up early and go down to catch a bus. This bus took us to village in the mountain where we started our hiking trip. The journey was amazing (not for everyone). The road is, well it's just narrow strip of sand and stones so you can imagine that some for the people weren't so happy about it.
      Hiking trip was short, about one hour but we reached very important holy place on the peak.
      On the top we had dancing meditation with Dambar, just move in the sound. I like it!
      Nevertheless we hadn't seen mountain yet, still cloudy. Only once or twice for a short moment we saw beauty of Annapurna in the clouds.
      The way back to our starting point was quite fast. My stomach has a little crisis during the lunch so I was just taking sunbath, still some consequences from yesterday...
      We also survived the way back! I don't understand how they can drive a bus on this road down from the hill...
      And this day is our last one in camp! Tomorrow we're getting back to city Pokhara.. Well I can't drink so much but we had also birthday party so at least some drinks, cake, dance, sing... wonderful...      Read more
