- eine Deutsche Version am Ende des Posts // A german Version at the end of this post -
Hi Guys,
I'm just in mood to share some thoughts with you. I know it is the first time I write a post in english, but I actually don't feel like the translation in my blog could deliver what I really want to express
. And to be honest I'm just in mood to write an english text. You know I'm from Germany, so please excuse me if my english is not perfect. I would be glad if you would message me if you noticed mistakes so I can correct them. My german readers don't have to worry, at the end of this post is a german version aswell.
As some of you may noticed I am not that good with posting regularly. So I am almost three month home again and I still haven't posted even half of our journey. I am sorry for that and I really try to work on that :-) (yes I heard nose-smileys are back lmao)
But as life goes on, there are big things for me to come and I would love to tell you about them. Thats why I decided to post about current happenings again and to post about the southeastasia travel in between. I hope you are okay with this and it is not confusing.
Today I was scrolling through my tumblr-favorites because I was searching for a special post but I found another post instead. I forgot about that post and I am happy that I found it again because I really liked it. Even if I don't know who wrote that text, I still want to share it with you.
"Relax. You’re going to travel. From one city to another. Converse in multiple languages. Explore districts to countries. Experience every culture at its finest. And when you do, you’re going to meet people who may or may not have an impact on you. You’re going to converse with people who are different from you, similar to you - people who you like or might not like - those who will belittle you and encourage you - who will believe in you and help you, and you’re going to learn from each one of them. You’re going to get to know them. Hear their story. What frightens them, what motivates them, what keeps them going. And you’re going to find out that there is more to life than any of this. You will feel pain, sadness, frustrations. But you will also feel alive, exuberant, human. You are going to find out that no experience is entirely the same as another. Some are relatable, but no two experiences are truly, downright the same. That’s why it’s so important to have your own. Not only will it teach you the best and most striking lessons, it will also make you feel alive. And truth be told, I don’t think anything else can really compare."
This is the blog where I found it. I love this text because in my eyes it tells so much about travelling and actually about life itself. And about to relax about the people you'll meet and maybe the judgement of them. Because I know it could be hard to not be liked by somebody. Or to not think like the people around you. And you should know that it is okay that way. Because the world is big, it is bigger than the world you see and live in, bigger than your city and your friends and your work. And as big are the possibilies. Don't let people tell you who you are and what you can do. You can be whoever you want to and you can do whatever you want to. I think when we are growing older and we have a job and a home, we forget that we can just leave it behind and start somewhere else, because we focus on the risks and we don't want to lose what we have built up. But sometimes it is not about the things we have and keeping them, sometimes it is about the journey and the experience of taking a risk and let go of things that keep us down and keep us stuck in our daily routine, our fears and worries. And one day it is time to open you mind and let the world in. The world outside your city and your friends and your worries. Because there is a vast number of views on life. There are so many stories to hear and they are all different to the stories you will tell. We are just a tiny tiny part in this world but even the tiniest part makes the world the way it is. And that is life. And that is beautiful.
So these are just a few thoughts about this text. You may disagree and that is okay. But today this text inspired me and maybe it will inspire you too. Or maybe your think about that text in another way and I would appreciate if you would like to share it with me.
The text made me calm down about my future because I have almost two weeks left until I will head to Italy for some weeks. I will live with a family as being kind of an au pair, even if i'm not going with a company. I found that family about workaway.info. It is my first experience with workaway but I heard so many good things about it that I want to give it a try. I will stay with that family until christmas and if everything works out as it should, I will fly back after new year. We will see how long I will stay, I have time for travelling until the beginning of august and I really want to enjoy that time as much as I enjoyed the three month in southeast asia - even if it is a completely different kind of travelling. Maybe I will stay with that family for the whole period of time, maybe I will head to another direction and see some more countries in this time. I will keep telling you about how things will develop.
I think this is enough for today, I hope you are all well and I send you my best wishes,
Lara
Hallo Leute,
Ich bin gerade in der Stimmung, ein paar meiner Gedanken mit euch zu teilen. Ich weiß dass es das erste Mal ist, dass ich einen Post in Englisch schreibe, aber ich habe im Moment nicht dass Gefühl, dass der Übersetzer in meinem Blog gut herüberbringen kann, was ich ausdrücken möchte. Und um ehrlich zu sein bin ich gerade in der Stimmung, einen Text auf Englisch zu verfassen. Ihr wisst ich bin aus Deutschland, also habt Nachsehen wenn mein Englisch nicht perfekt ist. Solltet ihr irgendwelche Fehler entdecken, wäre ich froh wenn ihr mir Bescheid sagt, damit ich sie korrigieren kann. Meine Leser aus Deutschland können unbesorgt sein, denn am ich schreibe jedes Mal auch eine deutsche Version am Ende des Posts ( so wie hier ).
Wie wohl einige von euch schon bemerkt haben, bin ich nicht besonders gut darin, regelmäßig zu posten. Ich bin nämlich schon drei Monate wieder zu Hause und habe nicht einmal über die Hälfte unserer Reise berichtet. Das tut mir leid, ich versuche wirklich daran zu arbeiten :-) ( Ich habe gehört, Nasensmiley sind wieder zurück haha )
Aber da das Leben weiter geht und große Veränderungen auf mich zu kommen, würde ich euch gerne darüber berichten. Deswegen habe ich mich entschieden, euch über aktuelle Dinge auf dem Laufenden zu halten und zwischendurch über unsere Reise in Südostasien zu berichten. Ich hoffe, das ist nicht zu verwirrend.
Heute habe ich mich durch meine Tumblr-Favoriten gescrollt weil ich einen bestimmt Post gesucht habe, und bin stattdessen über diesen hier gestolpert. Darüber habe ich mich sehr gefreut, denn ich mag diesen Text sehr und hatten ihn schon vergessen. Auch wenn ich nicht weiß, wer den Text verfasst hat, möchte ich ihn gern mit euch Teilen. (Allerdings ist es ein englischer Text)
