Week 4: more of Bayonne and Biarritz

My highlights of the week! Not always easy but it’s part of life. Ups and downs make the ride interesting. Earth isn’t flat either 🙂

  • Drinking original Argentinian mate with my new friend and improvised Spanish teacher Martin;
  • Hiking up la Rhune, a summit (905 m) on the border between France and Spain;
  • After 7 months not flying helicopters, being on top of the clouds again! This is something I used to experience every other week and is really an amazing experience;
  • Running down la Rhune, following closely behind the 10 years old Luca, a regular on this hill. He’s been trailing up and down la Rhune with his father regularly the last four years. It was hard to keep up!;
  • Drinking an Orangina after the effort, one of my childhood drinks we could only find in France 25 years ago. Good memories;
  • Realising I have been travelling for a month already;
  • Playing handpan at Anouk’s yoga class. A really strong moment of co-creation;
  • Going to an outdoor salsa party. It was beautiful to watch people dance;
  • Not finding the courage to dance;
  • Understanding the link between my anxiety of dancing salsa and my core-wound (something is wrong with me). Big win despite the unpleasant situation!;
  • Spending an evening with Clément, a local. We had a wonderful exchange about personal development, family relationships, romantic relationships, having had similar experiences;
  • Deciding to spend 3 weeks in San Sebastián to learn some Spanish before I visit more of the Spanish country;
  • Deciding to participate in the Alchemy of Touch Level 2 training in September in Andalucía to deepen my bodywork skills.

P.S.: EXPECTO PATRONUM!
