Taking a break

Since things are getting a bit difficult and stressful, we are using a three week gap to get out of our German life. We do have the possibility now and then to hop into another life over in the USA -- to get gas and to take a deep breath. At this point I want to thank all my friends in CT, who provide us since 7!!! years with such wonderful hospitality. We so appreciate this, because without them we wouldn't have had this "escape-life".


Seit die Umstände in Deutschland immer mehr die Form von Stress annehmen und enormen Druck aufbauen, haben wir unser drei-Wochen-Loch genutzt Deutschland den Rücken zu kehren. Wir haben ab und zu die Möglichkeit in ein anderes Leben in den USA zu schlüpfen -- um auftanken und mal wieder richtig durchatmen zu können. An dieser Stelle möchten wir uns bei all unseren Freunden in CT, die uns immerwieder seit 7!!! Jahren mit warmer Gastfreundschaft empfangen, bedanken. Wir schätzen das sehr, denn ohne sie hätten wir nicht dieses gesunde "Ausweich-Leben".

Walking Globe/Laufkugel

I remember when I started juggling. I was about 16 years old. I was crazy about learning it. So I took every opportunity to juggle -- mostly with my rolled-up socks until I got my first juggling balls.
Now, after four years of being on earth the Magic of Circus has caught Little ro! I took her several times to my circus workshops so she had the chance to get to know RO's circus world. The walking globes have caught her attention most and within days she learned how to walk on them. Now every time we see a globe she has to take the opportunity to keep practising her new circus element. That reminds me of how it started with me. I am just wondering when I have to buy the first walking globe. So in a way I hope she switches to juggling. . .
