Intensity Kicks In

 Ola!

Well, it’s been a while since I sat down and contemplated things on the computer screen. During these past months I am not using the internet that much hence why I appear here rarely.

My New Year have started with a boom. Or an explosion of feelings.

On the last day of 2020 I have found myself in a party, full of travellers and high spirits. It was an incredible feeling to be celebrating after a such long hibernation mood. It was so inspiring to see people still living their truths no matter what is happening around. I felt so high on life, so happy. I love spontaneous celebrations and this feeling of meeting new people, of hearing new stories is one of the reason why after 11 years of travelling I am still on the road.

And for the next 2 weeks I found myself ‘locked in’ at the amazing hostel, a converted old villa right at the beach with a beautiful sea view. The weather spoiled us all. January has always been a problematic one for me, but this time I was one of the happiest.

I finally started to practise long wanted open relationship with few partners and explored my insecurities, jealousies and wilderness.

With new friends, lots of fun and Julien’s accident in the sea I made a new plan and left Greece.

It felt emotional, in the end I stayed around 7 months in that land of Gods, I connected a lot with this beautiful chaotic land.

For the past 3-4 weeks I have been in Portugal. And if I thought that my first 2 weeks in January have been intense, well, I had to change my opinion again. I started to dig deeper into Tantra and explore what does it mean the love with no attachment (a difficult one!). Thing after a thing and I found myself drinking the plant medicine in one of the ceremonies around here. And that was intense, beautiful, deep and actually quite blissful. Many insights that were inside me anyway, were assured to me. I felt an incredible connection and gratitude, towards everyone and everything.

And then some bad news, a death of my father. That one kicked my ass. It shook everything what was inside me and made me lose some of my painted identities. I revisited my childhood lots of times. I prayed for my dad’s soul, to be liberated and free. I prayed for the ones, that are still here in their bodies, for their suffering and loneliness. I cried for myself too, I let that little girl inside me to be held and rocked all night long. I expressed myself in writing and had long deep conversations with Julien.

And then, after 3 weeks of clouds and rain, the sun have arrived. The beautiful blue sky and ocean, caressing my soul washed a lot of things away. I felt so good. But the intensity is still here. And in these past 2 months I have grown a lot.

And please, don’t take this post as a sorry call. It’s just much more personal update than normally. I am very fine. And I understand that everything in life is ups and downs, rest and celebration, happiness and sadness, light and darkness. And for the end, I would like to share something I read today by Mooji:

‘’Life doesn’t owe you anything. If you take this attitude then you are grateful for everything. What have you done to deserve 30 years of fresh oxygen? What has anyone done to have a heart that is beating even while one is asleep? What have you done to deserve anything at all and who are you even? If you contemplate these things deeply you would not be arrogant and you would not suffer. You would value life in all its expressions.’’

 

With much love,

Stay strong my friends <3

UK Tour


Hello all,

If anybody would ask me what is one of the best therapies to boost your happiness no doubt I would say it’s a friends therapy.

UK has been in my life for quite few years now, I lived there, had many days of fun and sure had some shit ones too. So no wonder that I made many connections there.

So when my ski season was over I was just dreaming to see everybody, to catch up and have some fun. I am extremely lucky for my lovely friends who know me and accept my last minute spontaneous messages and who dearly accept my chaos that I bring to them. Travelling with a backpack is amazing but when you need to get something from the bottom of it, it means all that shit you got in needs to be out which means creating a little jumble sale in your friends living room, oops!

This time I really felt like doing a UK tour, not that I’m famous or anything but crossing the country from the North to the West to the South and the East really felt like some kind of tour.

I was lucky and got to experience a heatwave in North Yorkshire, how amazing is that! Walking in shorts, doing yoga each morning in the garden, walking in that sweet warm breeze and even swimming in the North Sea (no wetsuits cause we are that hard core, ha!). Beautiful days, beautiful memories. Amazing wild seals colony with lots and lots of different clumsy seals, manifesting while hitch hiking, long talks, big laughs, long walks, exploring North York Moors, ohhh how amazing it all was!

Then South part with long beautiful walk in a bloody rainy Wales, haha, beautiful dinners together with friends, kisses, hugs, more laughs, more talks, more catch ups, more endorphins. I spent some magical time in the forest in Somerset where an off grid community living there in amazing hobit houses inspired me to live such life once in my life. Waking up in a tent in a forest is something everybody should experience, singing birds, beautiful sunshine rays coming through the trees, ohhhh, is this life for real???

I know I made another post where it seems like I am high on some kind of pill or something, but trust me, for such a nomadic spirit that I am, visiting friends is such an important time. I don’t have any stability in my life, I move from one country to another one and in each place I am lucky to have such special friendships but life moves on and I miss out on seeing my friends growing so each time I get a chance to see them again, my body produces so many endorphins that the happiness and joy just bounces. Also, let’s not forget it’s spring time, ha!

I just only wish I could have seen everybody, next time!

So yeah, this is just my little gratitude post for all my beautiful friends. Now time to have some fun in Lithuania.

With so much love and happiness,

L
