the adventure I find myself in / das Abenteuer in dem ich mich finde

a Saturday with rain

Today is a rainy day in Switzerland. On our schedule we have a stop in Interlaken to meet my mother and then in Brienz in the evening for our last presentation.
The meeting Yesterday evening went well and we met alot of nice people who were very interested in the work we do.

I think my soul finally has arrived. I feel alot more comfortable. Still it is a strange thing to live in two worlds. Our lives are quite different from the Swiss live. But it is difficult to explain. We learned over the years that it is more important to understand then to be understood. Understanding seems to have to do with experience or also with maturity that comes with experience. The thing is that the soul wants to be understood and craves for it. To let that desire go and to put that need on the bench for a while helps to speed up the process of integration. Still I believe that people who lived oversees for a long time lost some of their identity back in the other culture and will hardly be the same. I know I ramble on here and I don’t know if it makes any sense. Thanks for bearing with me.

    Am envious of you all in Interlaken and can close my eyes and picture the beauty of the landscape and being so close to nature.
    Enjoy it for all of us in Chiang Mai,
    Nadine
