Happy new year! May 2014 bring you lots of happiness, compassion and love.
As I always do during the last days of the year, I looked back on the previous year. Overall conclusion: 2013 was a very good year. I spent quality time with the people I love, met a lot of new and inspiring people in the most amazing locations and learned a lot. I learned for instance how to keep on walking with feet covered in blisters and a fever that made me delirious.
The things I am most proud of:
- Walked more than 650 kilometers to Santiago de Compostela
- Wrote about 100 lieve brieven
- Put up a Dreamboard with Liliane
- 'Married' my friends Brittany and Philippe (I officiated the ceremony)
- Organised (and presented) an Ignite event
- Started driving lessons again
- Ate a grasshopper
- Visited London with my sister Ayla
- Learned about critical connections with Gibran (in Nicaragua)
- Went on the camino (with its own highlights: the first albergue, Paul's last dinner, foodie day with Suzanne, the preacher, meeting Johnny Redsocks, arriving in Santiago)
- Being in Porto with Pim
- Visiting Kanchanaburi and the Saxophone bar in great company
- Did a Sweat Lodge with the fantastic Angelique
- Learned about being centered and strong all around through practicing Taikiken
