"To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven." (Ecclesiastes)

The beginning of the year has not been easy for my yoga teacher and his family. A week ago the teacher's father passed away. It was a relief in a way as he had been suffering of a cancer for a while already. The family is in a mourning period now.
I had intended to stay here a little longer, but due to these cirmustances I'll be leaving tomorrow. I'm going to spend the following weeks at an ayurvedic clinic in a tiny village a bit further up north. I'm going for "panchakarma", a traditional ayurvedic treatment.


























Thinking back to the past months, my heart fills with gratitude. I've learned a lot and I've met wonderful people that I'm gonna miss so much. I'll definitely be back... And until then the journey goes on - on and off the mat...


Dosa -my favorite South Indian dish by far! Will miss this yummy goodness!






















And I'm gonna miss this beach...



























I feel very fortunate for having had the opportunity to spend the past months in a place like this practicing and studying something I love passionately. Looking forward to the panchakarma now -it'll be an interesting experience for sure!
