New Home
To do what you like, without the usual restrictions, rules, boundaries and routines.
This mostly happens in dreams. But in a dream you rarely come ready to deal with this unexpected freedom and all the opportunities.
My own flat is like a dream.
I left a big frame of my life and stepped into this other, much more customisable one. I can decide over pretty much everything inside my walls, build my own world in ways I could ever only dream about.
This dream doesn’t really end, though. And sometimes it feels more real, sometimes less so. At some points I realise that I am in control, at other points I learn which factors to obey to.
Dreams show you many everyday things that you wouldn’t put into that certain context, so it is a fun way to explore how your own brain works under different conditions.
I just started to get the hang of this dream, I am beginning to like it, to feel at home inside of it.
This is a journey I will be on for a longer time, I feel.
Be welcome, do visit me inside this dream, share it with me, make it more real!
United States of America
Not many shows have caught my fancy the dreamy way Twin Peaks did.
As I found myself in British Columbia, I discovered that the places it was filmed weren’t far. In fact, they were so close I decided to go for one of my most memorable road trips.
The still marvelous rental car carried me all the way over the border, to the Snoqualmie Valley, where major parts of the show were filmed. In my time there, I even drove around the Olympic National Park, which mountain peaks I have peeked on from Canada.
I visited many sights of the show, had A Damn Fine Cup Of Coffee at a real American diner with coffee refills, saw Elk (finally) in multitude, was shown unexpected generosity by my Airbnb hostess, dreamlike hospitality by the Peaker-friendly DirtFish Rally School and enjoyed getting to know the local Sasquatches in that happy place called North Bend.
Where ‚The Great Northern‘ from the Show was filmed, I was lucky to find the place open as well and indulged in its magic and serenity, saw the iconic log, went further up into the Hall of Mosses, which sounds just as spectacular and possibly life-changing as it made a lasting impression on me.
A trip straight out of a dream, that was. A dream I woke up from to spend one last night with my loved ones in Canada, before returning home an enriched man.
