Looking at the topics I chose to give you some glimpses of my past, I notice it is almost exclusively trips I tell you about.
This could mean three things: Either my life at home is not picturesque or it is plain boring. Or that I only take my camera to trips.
This makes me think: What makes a life exciting? Is it the trips you have? Is it the things you can show to others?
Are there things you can’t show? Things that can hardly be photographed?
I think there is something that goes beyond pictures and descriptive words. There are stories. Experiences. Adventures.
You are being shaped, influenced and nurtured by the time you spend.
The reason why those experiences are always great is that I never went alone. There are people. Companions. Friends. And I don’t want to miss but one of them.
So summer came and Oh! it was a wondrous time. You know that idyllic ‘day at the lake’? We had that. Some camping, some water, some music, some sun, some walk and lots of fun!
Also, I visited Munich for the first time. It was an experience partly set in the city and partly at a medieval festival. My friend and I had a grand time indeed.
A great deal of my life revolves around my workplace. And by all means, it is not all bleak and sad! Some days we get together not to do our everyday job, but to spend some time casually. And we are quite good at that! This time we went on a canoe tour. Just at the brink of announcing the paddling to be work, we arrived at the campsite. We were awaited by drinks, food and a long night that, I think, brought us all a bit closer.
