Hi guys, Time flies when you are having fun and I had some fun! Very active at the moment to prepare for my walk to Santiago. Try to walk at least 1 hour per day, preferrably 2 hours per day - but I realize that five weeks from tomorrow I will have to walk at least 4 hours per day, including mountains to 1500 meters...so... yes, I still need to push it a little more to achieve my goal. But.... do I ask, what is my goal? To reach Santiago? Well, I could always take a bus... To walk 350 km.? Maybe… Continue

Well - I started off with 20 min. per day, but increased it to a minimum of 45 minutes walking per day..... My body still cooperates so it works this way for me.

This day was another confirmation for me that life goes the way it goes - not usually the way you planned it, but that's o.k. I'm sort of getting used to that now. Tonight I've bought boards for my husband (black), my daughter (gold) and myself (yellow/gold) so tomorrow we can make our visionboardday together! I'm really happy that they join me in the process so they will benefit from it as well. We are all looking forward to that. This will also help me to finally get my goals as clear as poss… Continue

Good morning to everyone! THis is the FIRST DAY of the REST OF YOUR LIFE so be HAPPY and enjoy it!! I started this morning by walking...... training for my Camino to Santiago de Compostela in Spain, in May this year. My goal for today is to be happy - smile as much as possible and (after my coffee in a minute) start making my wishlist and then meditation. Hope you'll all enjoy this day! Continue
