Leaving birdi-birdie-nam-nam

Dear all my friends and loved ones,























I just got back from my last trip to the beauty salon, and I feel like a princess (ready to meet my prins). I'm off to the beach in a minute to have my last swim before going home. I leave Goa this afternoon (14th of April). It will take me a stretched hure to get to the airport, and at 17 I have a flight to Mombay. My next flight is not before the next morning, and I'm so excited about spending the whole evening and the whole night at the airport in Mombay that I barely can't wait...!! :-( Well, I have a stop in Vienna on my way back as well, and I'll arrive in Oslo during midday at the 15th. I've enjoyed my time here in India, but I'm also very much looking forward to see you all. I'd love to go out and have a coffie (=fresh juice) once I'm back.

...and to my new friends from Purple Valley: I'm going to miss you all. Please keep in touch, and I hope to meet up with you in another at yoga workshop sometime. :-)

...and to my friends in the city of angels: Keep in touch, guys. I might soon make reality of my plans... See ya!

Guess what...! During the last workshop I met a norwegian girl working for the same company (NLP Centeret) as myself!! The world is not so big after all... The workshop with David Swenson has been very different from the one with his brother Doug. In difference from Dougs workshop in yoga flow, the last workshop has been more intense training (mysore), and also very useful teaching in the afternoon class. Most of my time here I've had a really good and intense practise. I've learned a lot! I've started on the second series, and are happy to have some new challenging postures to work on even though the yoga itself is even more important. Some days I'll say I've had good practice because I've had more piece of mind, and other days I've had a good practice because I've mastered some new postures. Yet there are days I feel stiff, tired and out of balance, and don't even manage to get piece of mind for three breaths during a whole practice....

I'm thinking seriously about starting to teach yoga when I come back. Well, maybe not even in Norway... I love teaching, and I enjoy yoga very much. So teaching yoga would be to do something that is really important to me, and also be able to pass on something I consider to be very valuable.

I've really enjoyed my yoga and stay here in northern Goa. Goa is a catholic state, and quite westernized. For my next trip to India I want to go to the beaches of southern Goa, but also spend some time traveling in other states in India. I would love to go to some of the Buddhist states, and I'm sure that's going to be a whole difference experience. Well, it's good to save something for later as well...

Yesterday I went with some people to a full moon party. The day that everyone goes a little crazy, right?! It was all trance music (not my style), but we had great fun anyway. And look at the great view we had! Isn't it wonderful?


I really enjoy to read the comments, and are very grateful that you take the time to write me. Please keep on writing me, and I hope to see you all soon!

:-) :-) :-)



I guess this is goodbye to birdi-birdie-nam-nam-land...

Great hug from
