hello hallo!!!!!!!

dear reader! i have not fallen off the face of the earth. i am just living life so much and to the fullest and being so much in the moment that it has been really hard to get online and rehash everything that i have been experiencing and doing. it has been a lot!
after i arrived back in the states after my trip back to europe i had two weeks time to get myself ready and then my dear friend antonella and her little daughter pia arrived in los angeles and i picked them up and we 3 went on a three and a half week road trip around beautiful california.

that was april. us three girls traveling around having adventures! 

in may i started my new business, pulse pleasure! i decided back in february when i was in germany  that i was going to make accessories, wrist cuffs, scarves, and headbands and sell them online and at festivals, street fairs and flea markets.  that's what i have been doing in may. sewing sewing sewing! in 20 days i turned out 202 pairs of wrist warmers, 80 decorated headbands and 50 loop scarves.  i got a lot of help from my dear grandmother and my sweet mother.  it was a learning experience for us all and we had a lot of fun besides! i am now ready for vending at my first big festival next weekend outside of santa barbara. 
i did take two weekends off during the month of sewing, one for the joshua tree music festival and one for the storytelling festival at boulder gardens. i had a few new friends model some of my products.

short stops

when i was in europe i visited friends in kassel and in munich.  these were short stops along my way with two wonderful girlfriends. in kassel i visited with caro and my godson art, also known as kiki and in munich i visited with veronica and her family.

i found a ride from berlin to kassel with a young lady on an online ride share site. it was great! i payed only 20euro for the four hour car ride.  i got dropped off at the train station and caro and kiki picked me up.  it was wonderful to see them!  caro and i know each other from berlin.  i was at kiki's birth 6 years ago and caro and i knew each other long before that. last year shortly after i left berlin caro and kiki moved to kasssel.

the last two days in europe i spent in munich with veronica, her husband ehsan and their little boy sam.  veronica and i met years ago at a spiritual dance workshop in munich which we both attended.  we loved each other from our first meeting.  she is a flight attendant and so she would visit me in berlin or even one time in san francisco when she was on her job. she is a sweetheart and a wonderful woman! she is married to ehsan and they have a sweet little boy named sam.  they live in munich where veronica has lived most of her life.  a few months ago they opened a physical therapy office which is  already doing very well.  i enjoyed my visit with them very much!
