The week of our daughters bookrelease. The most important event this year, maybe, a very very big step in her life, and for that reason also in ours. We are grateful and amazed. She wrote a book from a childs’ perspective, on how it is to live with the fear of loosing a mother sick from cancer – or: about how life is, when living with this fear and yet being a person with a life. It was, of course, for us a very confronting book, since it is based on her own experience. I finished it the day after the release, when in a train and I cried a lot. But I am also amazed of her talent – the book is not about our life or about us, it just took me back.
The day of the release was beautiful, she was so full of joy and so mature and calm in the whole situation: Gave a speech, read some parts of the book, signed copies. After the release, we all went to her apartment to have dinner and to hug and smile.
This week we have been living at our friends farm near Solrød. We have not been living in the bus, but adapting it – most importantly we have had it fixed (something with the wheels) and installed a wood burning stove. This is so cozy and amazing! Our friends had a visit from Germany of a guy who also converted a van, and he helped Jesper install the stove. It was more complicated than anticipated, but it is always like that. We have to be optimists, and yet just do the work. On the saturday the stove was up and running, and we thought installing the bicykle holder would be a one hour job, but actually it took forever, and we ended up buying a brand new one.
The time at the farm was also a time of connecting with friends, and of taking time out to be creative, drawing and coloring in, knitting and singing. We have been too busy and needed this quiet time. We had the chance to help moving goats around, especially moving the old male was a challenge, and a lot of fun.
Now at the end of this week we are so ready to be ready, and also working intensely on the inner part of the journey: To stay in the present moment and do whatever we know is right, trusting the process and the signals we receive. We feel scared, and work on letting it go, we feel stressed, and do meditation, we feel lucky, happy, excited, ready. Now, we really want to set sail for Paris! And yet we really need to let go of the planning and just listen to the moment. To the wind.

Sharing on Sundays – post covid writing – 2020 week 34
Sharing on Sundays used to be a great habit. Then my father died, and I tried to continue, but then Corona hit, and now I have loads of half-finished texts and nothing new on the blog. This Sunday I set the intention of finishing a small text, and re-install the habit.
Breaking the silence – my personal COVID response
Upon two months of silence, I review the value of vulnerability and why I started blogging in the first place. It is about how a stranger can hurt you, and also about how it is and always will be your own responsibility to choose how to react and whether you want to grow from the situation or not.
Reality of Buslife – 2020 week 7
But life realities of solar system troubleshooting and friends visiting from Denmark, the love of the full time traveling life and the focus you would need anywhere.
Worldschooling – 2020 week 6
Worldschooling is such a huge theme. It is not just a question of education, it is a question of being. In this life. In an alternative way. With the home base on the planet, eternally changing location, yet staying with ourselves.
Hacks on Happiness – 2020 week 4
Happiness is not about pure luck and uncontrollable fortunate circumstances. Living a truly happy life is about focus, choice, willingness to let go and to work for it.
