Achmed the dead terrorist in Nienburg and soonissimo 101

Yesterday, a journey started that seem to be ending in the outskirts of snowy nowhere in Northern Germany with horses on a side and a dog who seems to love opening fancy tea bags. In fact, a snow storm was all over the place, and the train was supposed to be arriving in Nienburg, but nothing, literally everything blank and not even houses for while. The landscape up there is flat and people from the area make the joke that you can see today who will be dropping by tomorrow by viewing them on the horizon. But I did arrive sound and safe and it was so much fun.

Btw: I forgot Sam at home and as a logical consequence it is my turn to do the honours here :)

We had a great party at Ray´s place, and for starters, so many cool people, coming from Berlin and Hannover. Ray´s cooking was excellent and the night, and yes, I was rolling home without any help in front of the train :) (no wonder: we started with datils in bacon, continued with guacamole and nachos, sushi, cous cous, etc).

I am lucky enough to know Ray for a couple of years now and the fun is endless. While I am writing this, youtube is playing Achmed the dead terrorist and I still can´t believe it, we were laughing so hard about it!

Other than that, I learned that there seems to be a habit in berlin to tell somebody to dance their name (tanz´Deinen Namen) aka "get lost" which I find hilarious, especially considering the it seems to be a part of the Waldorf-school educational system in a much nicer context.

And if anybody reading this finds a good idea for converting a property into a multi-family/multi-party (party in the sense of various parties living there, not crack-parties with a disco-light) house in Italy, Spain, France, Cologne area, Rügen or schwäbische Alp, they should get in touch with us. We are not crazy but weighing our options to put some ideas into the hat within a couple of years, until we have a good and feasible concept together. Right now the concept is rather blurry, but this idea has popped up so many times already we think we should look into it. The main idea is: quiet, peace, family if we wish to and none if we don´t in a nice environment. This is soonissimo 101, so please advice!!!!!

Ray, we all had so much fun, thank you very much. Psychedelic kisses as always :)
