I needed to feel the sun and fresh air again after too many weekend nights, loaded of techno in dark, underground caves, celebrating a new year.

My dear friend Robert, an incredibly talented photographer Fotomacher.Art picked me up to lift my down mood I was caught in.

It was an unusual business meeting in the cutest car ever, a short but "refreshing my brain" trip on a bright day of a new year in 2020, presenting me with too many challenges already.

I had to stop the moment on this cold January day, reflecting what I have achieved past years and reboot to be strong enough to work out new problems facing me again. Keep yourself always busy enough that there is no time to think too much about those unwanted worries.

A little bit of "Techno" in the middle of nature :)

Many of you might know that I lived in the tropical island of Bali for over 16 years until I relocated to my hometown due to various reasons but mostly to get my severe health issues in check. Its not been easy to get used to the different climate and especially the cold winter season in Vienna is for sure not my favourite time but I embraced the freeze. I find myself hiding in my cocoon too often in recent times, trying to gain my usual powerful energy I kind of lost somewhere last year.It was a tough one, indeed!

Trust The Wait ......I read somewhere.

You are being prepared for your blessings and in order to receive, you have to be absolutely ready to receive.

Oh dear! I am more than ready but somehow things don't work out as I imagined.

Things you are going through are not just random. Everything you go through, grows you.

Trust the season of preparation!

So....Ok then ....It sounds cliche but I imprinted this simple advice into my braincells and placed those powerful words in-front of my laptop space but first the Viennese woods air had to cleanse my confused brain, so clear that I have to conquer all those worrisome thoughts, passing by to scare me. I have fears and they had to be detoxed immediately!

A pleasant ride, manifesting big changes for 2020

Sophienalpe, a very familiar place, a little nature's heaven, I have very fond memories off. In my twenties we used to drive there on our motorbikes, getting lost in the wide fields, meadows for hours, watching the sky, listening to Jazz tunes. I took magic mushrooms for the very first time back then.

It still looks like in those 70's with the same swings, where the intense psychedelic feeling touched me gently carrying me into another world I only imagined.

Sophienalpe is located past the famous Ernst Fuchs Museum Villadriving up Sophienalpen Strasse where you can find a nice hotel with an excellent restaurant but only open in spring and summer.

THE MUSEUM
In 1888, the renown Jugendstil architect Otto Wagner designed and built a summer house for himself and his family located in Hütteldorf on the border of the historical “Wiener Wald”. The star architect moved in as early as 1895 and stayed until his children had moved out and the house became too big for just himself. He then sold the villa to Ben Tiber a wealthy business man who owned various theatres in Vienna including the famous Varieté Ronacher. Wagner himself acquired a piece of land right next to the grand villa and built himself a smaller and simpler house. The former Wagner-Villa, later Ben-Tiber-Villa and today’s Fuchs-Villa, was considered a spectacular piece of architecture from its very foundation. When the design and floor plans of the house were first shown in Berlin, the press wrote the following: “A strange allure is evoked by this peculiar villa of the artist in Vienna, Hütteldorf. Completely deviating from the usual appearance of similar buildings, the frontal view of the house that sits on the flank of a hill, only shows a large open hall between two side wings.” Although the construction of the house evoked much turmoil at first, however, it later fell into oblivion and was only saved through the initiative of Ernst Fuchs.
