Oct 18, 2008 We rested some days in a nice horse-farm which belongs to friends of anja.
There we had a skillsharing-circle to see what we want to learn and what we can give further to others and built up a little learning plan for ourselves, which means that we founded learning groups, for example different language learning groups, a yoga group, a photo-workshop and lots more…
We also organised a financial meeting and met in the circle to exchange our expectations and our visions of the tour.
The father of the farm family is working on a map-tracking-software which enables you to track your way on a google-map with mobilephone and GPS to reconstruct your route. He offered us to use his invention on our way and gave us 2 GPS-mouses where after we tracked the first route to Switzerland.
After two days we left to find a nice place to stay over night at Lake Konstanz.
On our way we picked up some interesting components in the form of a beautiful pink chair, a mattres and a wonderful blue pillow.
As the sun sat down we stopped in a little village at the lake and parked nearby a park.
By strolling arround we collected some firewood so that we could start a nice campfire nearby the lake to cook dinner in it.
The night was beautiful dark and the big fullmoon was rising up on the other side of the lake which we left behind us, reflecting mysteriously in the dark waters and symbolically shining us the way in the direction of our next level of the tour: SWITZERLAND.
So nice, the first time that we slept outside in the wilderness.. being just for us.. enjoying the fullmoon.
In the morning we were surrounded by fog and after some morning-yoga and swimming in the icy lake we had jammjamm breakfast,
while the sun broke through and a beautiful day began.
The next challenge was waiting for us at the border in Konstanz.
One of us was secretly filming the border-policeman. When he recognized it he got angry and made us deleting the whole film material which took a lot of time as we weren’t very used to use the camera. 
But all in all we were allowed to pass by without car-check.
After passing 18 roundabouts (WOW) we finally arrived in Kesswil.
The nice family which was waiting for us, created a network called humanshope.
In the moment this network includes thirty persons and it is mainly based on a webpage which presents their ideas and links to many other different projects, which seem to fit in their flow.
The basic idea is that all the “problems” of our world cannot be solved seperately anymore, but need to be looked at from an all-encompassing point of view, so all the different aspects such as spiritual (f.e. the Maya calendar), economical, political and social are included.
So they developed a concept of how it could be possible to reorganise and reform the world system.
Their main idea is based on a bee cell structure which can already be found in very old cultures, and as well in recent sciences, such as RAUMFAHRT, where they found this form in the asteroid-belt which surrounds Saturn.
According to this proposal, the world is split in many hundred cells, of which each one is independent,selforganised and is able to live out of its own capacities. Of course not every unit has all ressources, as oil, specific plants etc.,
so this is where the network of a bigger territory, seperated into six cells, takes care of each other. If there are any problems which can’t be solved on one level, it is carried up to the next level.
For more information have a look at www.humanshope.ch .
As the Maya calendar builts an important aspect of the concept’s background, mainly the whole group works with it and tries to transfer it into their daily life. They even have a learning group in which they meet regularly every month to exchange and deepen their knowledge.
So we had the great chance to take part in a short introduction and later on in a workshop about more details of the Maya philosophy, which is a lot more than just a calendar, and even more than a horoscope, but a whole life philosophy including a new understanding of time and the complexity of the universal cycles in its past and in its future as well as the humans’ role in it.

Before meeting us, Franziska, the mother of the family, was really sceptical about our whole group and expected us to be wild long-haired people covered with wool all over ;), but when we left after two long days she even cried and she and Antonio, the founder of the humanshope-network, didn’t want to let us go. We felt incredibly at home at their place and it felt like leaving family. It was such an open minded place, where we could share all our ideas, enjoying ourselves and the whole atmosphere. So one evening we had a workshop of the humanshope project with Antonio, whereafter the evening slowly grew into a wonderful sharing of sound, dance and meditation.
All in all it was absolutely touching to realize, how different people have the same or similar ideas at the same time, and how they get connected in a flowing way, exchange their ideas and dreams and explore ways to cooperate and work together to be stronger and move on.
And we knew it was good that we came.
