About me
In thoughts I go through the journey and what it will bring,again and again. It hardly passes one day, where I do not surprise myself with as I consider, where I am in one year. This is in the Migros at the cash: do I become this overwhelming offer at food? Or at a birthday celebration: where I actually celebrate my next Birthday....? etc..
In the following report I try to record the most important missing in addition, gifts of the journey and my thoughts on it. The most important? Well, a part of my thoughts anyhow... |
10 months without...........
............ Work!
How will it be without any time table? A large part of my daily is regulated by time table. It is prescribed for me, when I have break, when I have to stand before the class, when I can dismiss the children and me into the spare time, even holidays for me are prescribed. Never in my life I had myself to arrange for longer than 5 weeks! How does it feel like to be so freely? And- will I miss the school? The children? The colleagues? Planning? This knowledge, for what I rise today and what I'll have to settle? |

............ my Cardplaing-meetings!
No joke! Since over 2 years I meet regularly with 3 dear friends for one evening with play, drink and everything that belongs to to a correct playerevening. I will miss that! On a evening like this happens more than a few lines on the board! There is luck, concentration, the playpartner, bluffs and pitch, which again and again keeps me awake till urly in the morning! And not least the fine meal, which the respective host gives to the best one! Thus I eat once in the month genuinly well and have every 4 months the challenge to master to cook something.By the way, I increased from cooked italien pasta to asiatic courts............. |
|
..........Post office!
For me a daily ritual; collect the letters (I mean now that down in the house entrance), to open and read letters to hide the calculations somewhere on the desk under the newspaper to read. |
......................... Attendance!
I had always gladly attendance. And now, where I can cook, the attendance comes also gladly! At least once in the month I have my home full of guests from former school colleagues, teaching colleagues, joys and acquaintance. On our journey I am the attendance, always... |
.............my bang-red sofa!
It is not very comfortable. I is already 5 years old. But it is bang red and it is mine. My first piece of furniture of my first dwelling! I moved it already 3x into the highest stick of my new home. |
..... without cosmetics!
Well, beautifull by nature, I do not need any cosmetics! Seriosly, the only cosmetics, beside the products for hygiene, which I use, is a cream to get rid of my hair on my legs. And there I have it better then Philipp: finally the hair at the legs does not grow as fast as of Philipps beard.......... |

........................ jogging, my wonderful prospect of my balcony, accumulating marriages on the clogged Swiss roads, family, car, wardrobe, refrigerator..... |

10 months with...........
................ with Philipp!
"You don't even live together! How do you think to be able to spend 10 months always together? In the same tent?" That's what my friends ask me again and again. An entitled question. But I did my experiences with Philipp and also with myself, which says to me- together with the simply good feeling in the belly- completely clearly that it is not absurd and that we can very probably try that.
Clearly, you never know what happens. But I feel of Philipps speed in thinking, enterprise, looking atthings, having enough of a thing, and an acting very pleasantly; it is means very similar.
Philipp and I have the same humor. I find that very important! And we have a similar picture of the world and what want to reach and what we don't want to reach. And the ultimative hardened we also existed: How many pairs do you know, for which one day together in the car can become a Horrortrip? Because man nevertheless better drives than the woman? And woman knows exactly that this is not correct? Well, I unwound each day over 600 km with Philipp with the car over 3 weeks long; and I survived! If that is not a proof that it folds! In the car! Man and woman! And I was allowed to drive ; -)! |
|
................. the motorcycle!
That's the first question, that people ask me: about the motorbike. No, not directly on the motorcycle! On my back! (it does not concern the optical now here; but the curious ones betraying- it is completely ok!) Will it really do pain so terriblly to me, like everybody tells me? Will it be swollen blue, and wund of this long sitting? I'll tell you about that, when i konw it. But I want to mark the fact that for Offroad you stand more on the machine than you sit....!
How will it be, when I, for longer than 1 month, carry all my stuff and property like a snail with me? My motorcycle is my home, my wardrobe, my vehicle and my faithful companion! |
.................... strange humans, strange countries, strange cultures, pure nature!
That becomes the largest challenge! And that is naturally also one of the principal reasons for me to do this journey with the motorcycle and not with hotel plan! I believe to be able to say about myself that I need the contact to humans (one reason to become a teacher) and I am convinced of the fact that I can learn from humans at most (therefore I teach probably). And nevertheless I have already now respect for the quantity of stranger, which I will meet on my journey. It will be not always possible to fold and not to see what I do not want to see. Writing down, apart from th exchange with Philipp, my experiences will help me to digesting my experiencies during the journey so that hunger remains on more!
Nature and to be delivered to it will also cost me some energy. I can not say after 1 week rain: Easy, in 6 h I'm home and can take a hot bath! I know that I am tough. And the thought on what I'll miss, while sitting in order at home, will advance me.......... |
