Raw Updates

Been visiting a few people and places in the last couple of days. My auntie which lives in Germany has been asking me since long to go visit her and I have been taken this opportunity since its not a long rode from where I em livn nowadays. Last time I was visiting her it was 6 years ago on my epic push-bike-tour, I remember 160 km from Strassbourg (FRANCE) to her place and arrived late at night riding trough the fields at something like 10,30 pm!! She has started playing music now and sings like an angel... Songs as "Blowin in the wind" and "This is my land" are good for beginners like her to get used to the chords of a , d , e.

Yes I know my hair haha

I was just at the beginning of my RAW JOURNEY back then and things have changed dramatically I tell you. For example,,, I was still fighting with cravings to cooked food and my addictions to BREAD and PASTA!! Unlike in previous time, I got her on on the raw wagon for a few days introducing her to Smoothies, Fruit and Simple Salad Concotions. She lost some kg in 2 days and hopefully gained some health too, It takes time to adjust and make healthy choices and changes logically! But Im optimistic, every little step counts, I´ve seen it happen for me, so take your time but dont loose focus, go ahead... :)

 Coincidentally just a few km from where she lives this year the RAW FOOD EXPO "Rohvolution" was held for the second consecutive time. Over 43 stalls, organizators and obviously MANY guests from all over the World. I met Markus Rothkranz and other interesting people with whom I shared good conversations, like a lovey fruitarian lady that lives and studies in Germany but originally from China... And I found amazing figs and durians - eating quiet a lot of it!! So yummy!! You cant get enough of it!!

The city of SPEYER is a city with approximately 50,000 inhabitants. Located beside the river Rhine (Rhein in german)... Speyer is 25 km south of Mannheim. It was founded by the Romans and it is one of Germany's oldest cities. I love the Rhein you can literally bike it up all the way from Switzerland till Holland. Its nice to ride your bike along rivers, something very natural and "flowing"... :))

A few days before the Raw Food Expo was happening I went out for an exploration. I took some pictures with my camera while riding there with a bike trough the fields, not a long ride, aprox. 50 km total... This time -unlike 6 years ago- I was riding during the day! How interesting: perceptions change dramatically according to your state of consciousness. Your reality is subjective to your inner state , not vs!

On my way back I found nice flowers (malva??) and the best apples you could imagine for. They tasted sweet, juciy and crispy, nothing like the store-buy-apples. :) Good to get your energy levels back after a nice day out on your bike... and FREE!!

In the next weeks I´ll be still on the Road this time heading to Italy in TUSCANY. Im organizing a Raw Food ""Working Holiday WEEK"" with some friends and em excited to explore this meditative, quiet and very natural area with some guests from Germany. We will be also visiting the city of FLORENCE and the surroundings, trying to have 1 day on and day off work...  Will keep you UP-TO-DATE with RAW UPDATES , also the next article will be on the DATE-COOP... THE FRUIT TO INTEND!
