Step away from the U barn map!!!

www.888dag.com

Well what can i say!! Berlin has been Fabulous, what a great alternative city but don´t even crack me up with my girlfriend though and her love and control of the U barn map!!!

52 is sooooo much fun to travel with but i have been laughing at her and had to make an agreement at around midnight on our way back from East Berlin on our way home from the most fabulous off the wall bar i have been into 4 a long time and yes we made a video!!!
anyway the agreement was for 52 to put complete trust in me for the Saturday in regards to where we had to go on the U barn and if we went wrong to just chill and know that we will definately get 2 where we need to be!!

With some hesitation i am proud to say it went very well. 52 and Berlin.. you rock!!!

Tony , i can´t link cos it is all in German i dont have a clue what it says!!!

We are off to Paris tomorrow.. speak soon!! xx

its all Berlin!!!!

well here we are in Berlin. Fabulous city and so much fun exploring. It is really funny cos i dont drink or party anymore and it is so funny observing my head that the minute i get somewhere new it wants to immediatly party and thinks that is the only way i am going 2 connect with the place. VERY interesting simply observing and realising i have a choice to think this or not, how very freeing!!

So i behaved quite well on take off! well most of them and have been making some 4 min videos, my latest one was made in a very cool gay bar that we happened upon, the guys were gorgeous and the place very cool and funky, so we sat at the bar, set up the film and filmed some Berlin Brunching.

I wonder why my head likes to flirt with the self distruct button!!! when everything in life is so beautiful!! mmmmmm!!!

i am so grateful 4 u all being here!!

Im so happy to be in Berlin with my gorgeous girlfriend, who by the way we officially got engaged just before we flew out!! how blessed am i x x

thank you

www.888dag.com




I just wanted to say thank you for all the words of love that i had extended to me, it actually made me teary and touched my heart.. so thank you, it is such a special feeling to know that i am not alone, and when i feel i am that is when i have to work extra hard to remember i am not.


I am so very lucky and flying off to Europe tomorrow and my camera is coming too and lets see what is happening in some of the most gorgeous cities in the world!!

i will be reporting so lets see what the Messiah gets up 2!!

First off though, i think my 1st video will be of my partner laughing at me in turbulence,, it scares the union jack colours off me!! ;-)

I am going to get better at blogging!!

I will be really interested to know what others do when you feel in a situation that you are powerless over, how do you practice acceptance and let go?

Feeling afraid

I feel afraid today!! i feel afraid to be me.. not sure what that means.. but i do feel afraid. I'm afraid of things going wrong if i'm me, I know so much in my head that this is such Bollocks but not sure how to let go and be true to myself????

Thank you for listening x

acceptance is the answer

Thank you so much for your reply's :-) I'm doing good and hope everyone who reads this is doing great!! I have just been to the NSW gallery to hear a talk on the Lost Buddha's and it totally reminded me how wonderful it is to be still and together inside. I have been practicing Buddhism now for about 3 years off and on and i'm trying to get back in the routine of getting up half an hour early, reading some Dharma (Buddha's teachings) having a simple breathing meditation for just a few minutes and reading my favorite paragraph on acceptance, which starts .. Acceptance is the answer to all my problems today, when i am disturbed it is because i find some person, place thing or situation, some fact of my life unacceptable to me, and i can find no serenity until i accept that person, place, thing or situation as being exactly the way it is meant to be at this moment.. i love that it just reminds me to breath, accept and enjoy cos really whatever is happening is happening, just cos i don't like it, isn't going to change anything, but what i can change is my mind and how i look at the situation..

PS does anyone know where i can find some helium balloons in the cbd??? but if you see my partner, please don't tell her it is for a surprise!!!

Wishing you a great day!!

Settling into Sydney

So my life for the last 12 years has totally been free spirited, traveling round the world, new cultures, people, experiences and i always knew that when i found the right place i would stop and settle, and i have found it here in Sydney, but it has been a real growing experience settling down and making roots( not the Australian meaning of root, mind you!!) I find keeping an open mind,being open to new people, experiences is the way forward and just to simply 'let go' and go with it, which is definitely not that easy! in fact letting go is a concept i totally find hard yet i know that when i surrender to it, and i mean surrender in a very positive way life is ALWAYS ALWAYS better, and i find settling into a new city requires lots of acceptance, letting go and enjoying the ride, cos really life is just one big adventure, all the small stuff i find myself worrying about really isn't worth it, i always try and remember to ask myself.. How important is it really??? and 95% of the time, it is not that important at all!!

The Poetry of motion. The real way to travel. The only way to travel. Here today - next week, tomorrow! Villages skipped, towns and cities jumped - always somebody else's horizon!
