more impressions from Otres Beach

will be not easy to leave this wonderful place & people. But i don`` t want to live in a dream world when a wonderful reality is waiting ahead! So i will change to Kep tomorrow to meet up with Thomas and Pete. Peace!

Mi Confession

I had a wonderful walk yesterday about 10 kilometres to the beginnining of the National Park. I needed sometime for myself. And then I had to do a little collage... There was no plan, just desire! It`s Amor!

More from Heaven - what a gift

Hi everyboday.

To be honest. It isn`t the same here without here. But it is still a wonderful place and the family already kind of adopted me. Got even blessed by the monks, who came to devote the new temple in front of the oldest tree of this part of the beach. I am so happy and gratefull. Cannot belive how lucky I am, that I found the ONE!!! It`s so great to skype with her even if I would prefer to take the next plane to Buenos AIres. But I need to end my journey nicely after such a long time and another journey ahead. i am very busy with writing, selecting pictures, connecting with interesting people, discovering more and more music, developing ideas and so on.
I am happy about any advice you can give to me about Photo Stack Buisiness, Exhibitions, Places and Cafes to present Posters from my own pictures or a whole exhibition. Every advice, how small it ever is. It is a gift.
SOme pictures abot the wonderful present. Soon I will meet up one more time with Pete and Thomas and then probably have a short visit to Pnom Penh, making a short visit to Angkor Wat and would like to take the train to Bangkok afterwards. There I need to find a good place for cheap but good quality posters. Has anybody any idea.
Thank you for beeing with me on this incredible journey that changed the way I am looking to the world and acting with people but never changed my personality. I am totally the person I am. Thank you so much for shring the road with me!!!

Much love from Mr. Coconutyoga

Ultimate Joy, Bliss and Love

Hello everybody.

I hope you are all doing well! I have a lot of good News and I am looking forward to share my incredible joy with you! I could write without end but I try to put the pieces together for you.

OK, where to start? Already Angkor was an incredible experience for me. I was so much impressed. I felt the Compassion of the beautiful Faces in the Bayon, the heart of Angkor Thom, enjoyed Moments full of Devotion, was stunned from the incredible architecture and asked myself how much the Kings and the architects must have loved the creation and feared the Gods, that they let built these timeless monuments. First devoted to the Hindu Gods Brahma (the creator), Vishnu (the Conserver) and Shiva, the Destroyer, how dances until the World collapse to be renewed by Brahma again. Very late it became a Buddhist Place. But I don`t want to forget to mention how many people had to suffer for building these monuments, even when they used elephants to carry the stones in the jungle. But in a way it must have been cruel for the workers, same like in Egypt or with the Mayas. But still very, very impressive.

I enjoyed it a lot being in the back of a Moto and found a really nice driver. I listened a lot to the Eddie Vedder Soundtrack and felt great.

“Long Nights”
“Society”
“Guaranteed”
“The End of the Road”

Check these music out if you are interested. All by Eddie Vedder. It’s the Soundtrack of “into the wild”.

I slept outside in front of a hotel. How comes? I arrived late from the 4 thousand Islands after another crazy exhausting journey. I got offered a dorm room and thought I could do that for a night. Then I found myself outside like in a small Pavilion. And I liked it and stayed 10 nights… 
Actually it wasn`t a good constellation to catch some sleep. First there have been drunk people all the time at the pool all night. When that stopped, the neighbors celebrated two marriages in a row with incredible loud music from 8 a.m. damned shit. I almost changed to a room but finally I was fine. Nothing got ever stolen. I came in touch with very nice people. Every day there was somebody else. Some people stayed a few days and I stayed and stayed. I also liked to talk with the funny rickshaw drivers, went to the pool, played badminton, went to the town and the rest was socializing.

And then everything changed totally in a very unexpected way. OK, I was ready to jump for love but I am still wondering that these wonderful moment happened to me and turned to be a moment that could last my whole life. But slowly, slowly.
One evening a nice and interesting woman from Argentina stood in front of my Pavilion and started talking with me. We talked for hours lying in her bed (she was my neighbor for one night before she moved to a room). She had just a few hours of sleep, as she headed the next day to see the sunrise at Angkor Wat and discover a lot of temples almost the whole day. Actually I never made it for the Sunrise. I wonder why… ;-) You know me…

I was looking forward to see her returning. She really liked it, even if she wasn`t enthusiastic as I was. What is good to understand as I am extreme. But only from time to time. Why not?
And when she came it was heaven. We talked a little, then we felt closer and closer and finally we started to kiss and it smashed me immediately in a wonderful way. And she decided to head with my to the Cambodian coast, knowing that she would have a flight a few days later from Bangkok back to Buenos Aires. I was incredible happy, could almost not believe it. It’s not that we didn`t had any misunderstandings, but I think that brought us even closer to each other and it can be scary to feel from the beginning so intense feeling for somebody you just met.
As I wanted to go to the Temples a fourth day, she told me to go and enjoy until the sunset and we would leave the following day by night bus to Shinoukville. When I was at the temples I was in a way glad that she understood how much I enjoy to be alone in these atmosphere. But I also missed her a lot and imagined how great it would be to share these moments with her. I was so grateful, thanked the Gods for sending me these source of incredible happiness. I devoted some intense sticks, talked with some monks and enjoyed the incredible atmosphere at Ta Prohm, where I had just “my” place. Nobody around, just the sounds of the jungle - mighty trees growing on the temples and walls. I was fulfilled and happy.
I was very exited to come back to see her again and share with her my joy. And we did…

After another one and a half hours of talking and coming closer we started to kiss and I entered a different dimension…
We went to the town and buyed some wonderful stuff from the Old Market. We enjoyed ourselves a lot, met nice people.
The next day we got our tickets, went again to the town with a really nice, exited and young Swedish traveller. In the end we still stayed in a restaurant when we head 15 minutes to catch our pick-up at the hotel. And I hadn`t paid my bill for the 10 days… And she needed still a new bag. Shopping. As she is a fashion designer, who also designs her own beautiful clothes she is very selective and the locals are almost scared about her talent for bargaining… As she is going every year a few times to China to fix the prices for the fabrics her company is producing there. She also takes a look at the production. But she is also fed up with these trips. What is so understandable.

She really wants to change her life. We just met at the perfect time.
But back to the restaurant. She went to buy a new bag and the Ganesh, she wanted for herself and three minutes she was back with all she wanted.
We took a Tuk-Tuk back to the hotel, where the pickup was waiting. After endless waiting for the bill, we went by Tuk-Tuk to the Bus.
I was incredible exited but also calm, because everything felt so right.
As she took a sleeping pill she was able to sleep and I kept being awake. Another nightbus…

We arrived in the early morning in Shinoukville and she was still very affected from the pill, really tired and weak. Probably we even managed to forget her shoes on the bus. But we return to this matter….
But still she started to bargain with the drivers until I decided that I am not going to bargain about a dollar and we just left to the place, where Thomas and Pete already stayed some days. A wonderful place. We chilled at the beach in these amazing chairs (we need to buy one ) and felt from the very beginning like in heaven.

Where our intensive worlds meet together there is light. A lot… As she stayed it was like endless dreaming. I totally agree!!!

We had only four days here together and I can easily say that was by fare the most wonderful time in my life. Mysterious, challenging, exhausting - but also refreshing, exciting, wonderful. We both felt blissed and we didn`t lost our smiles. We had another one or two difficult moments to go through, but that was necessary, also to talk about our desires, our former disappointments and to get clear what problems we have with ourselves from time to time. What has sometimes not to do with us too.

Sleep became a word that was missing in my dictionary…
She slept a little more but still much to less. We just felt fully awake when we have been together.

We also had a wonderful time with Thomas and Pete. Was so great to see them again. We might meet up also very soon at another beach on an islands at the coast. Would be phantastic. I also got so amazing music from Thomas. I am still wondering what kind of music is on mymp3 player right now. And I keep on meeting more and more music, exchanging book tips and ideas what to do with my medias from this journey.
But back to the most wonderful part of my life. And I had already before so amazing friends and family, but this… No Words for it. But I try hard to find some…
For ever I will remind our trip to Shinoukville. We have been by far the most confused people in this little town EVER. A Video of theis episode would become a legend ;-)

So what happened? We went to buy some small stuff for us. We took a Tuk-Tuk and went on this short but incredible bumpy road. First we went to get some information how she could come home. She still needed to reach Bangkok to catch her flight… Then we tried to change her flight day. I wrote a email to Air Quatar. Sadly they could offer something a week later, but that seemed to be impossible, at she will have an important meeting for a fashion week at that date. But we tried and I am so glad we did. She is such a brave woman. The craziest thing ever was entering to more travel agencies. We haven`t been able to speak one useful phrase, we looked lost at each other, break off in a incredible laugh, left the Offices without having said properly hello and left behind very confused staff there… Next stop at a supermarket. We entered it and got lost immediately. We struggled to buy even a cream for her. I was never so lost but incredible happy at the same time, sensing that she had (and still has) the same feeling. She advised me to shop in different sections of the super market. When we met again, we had a lot of crazy things with us. As she didn`t had any shoes (still…) we tried to get some. But as she is a fashion designer she is very picky. She found the right shoes but the color was wrong ;-)

It was so funny. And everybody was laughing about and with us. She tried on her own another shop, came back (still without shoes), telling me we would have to leave this place… We passed the shop, where she went alone, where four locals kept on staying in front of the shop laughing like hell. Wonderful! I love the way she deals with other people and especially the locals. She has such a big heart.
After Thomas and Pete left to Koh Rong (an nearby Islands) we met another great german guy, Falcon, who is leaving in Chiang Mai almost three years already. A great guy, with good music, very easy going. And there was Elles from Netherlands. Another great person. We all understood with each other perfectly. We sat at the beach, listened to great music, went from time to time to the see and have been incredible happy. More happy then ever before.

There was one time when we have been in the water when we could see the stars (the weather is changing a lot and there is a lot of clouds or rain, but who cares?). I had a incredible sensation, staying there with her in the water. I felt the universe expanding, felt energy floating into my mind and body and felt infinity. I told her about what I sensed and she had absolutely the same feeling.

I felt like falling. You are the ONE!!!!!


Still I heared some music when she managed to sleep a little and I couldn`t, because I was way to exited the whole time. And it killed me. Air (cherry blossom girl, All I need, Kelly watch the stars, Venus), Lenny Kravitz (I`ll be waiting for you), Moby (18, at least we tried)…
I will post a playlist soon with all this phantastic and inspiring music!!!
She kept on running in the morning (she is a marathon runner and a vegan) even after one hour of sleep. We gave each other space but enjoyed also every single second with each other.

The last night wasn`t only easy but wonderful. We talked about the future, tried to avoid to get too sad. There was a point, when she refused me. It was all getting too much emotionally. We took a break, talked it out and then I listened to “With you, Mit Dir” from freundeskreis a hiphop formation from my home town with a lot of soul. A Love song and I was sad and was singing also, because it was fitting to the situation perfect. Even when she couldn`t understand the message it reached her.
Saying good-bye to her was extremely harmful, even when I was (and I am) sure we will see soon again. I was crying.

She was brave but told me later she was crying the whole flight. And she took a 50-hours journey on her… I felt so much with her. For sure I wanted her to stay for every price and she didn`t wanted to leave at all. But it was right. She needed to go back to her former live like I have to do very soon.
I am happy that she don`t want to change her life only because of my, as she was thinking about leaving Buenos Aires, these job and the trips to China, she started to hate. Otherwise it wouldn`t work. And she is managing this right now. Telling her friends about a new life feeling and a decision she made, telling her family, telling her ex-boyfriend. She is so brave. For sure her sisters are not very happy, that she is telling them, that she will not stay and live a life with a german guy, she met in Cambodia after six days. Sounds strange. But they haven`t seen us. And everybody who saw us understood that this is something what happens once in a life time!

I made me decision already and I only want to be on a road that leads to her!
These are big Words, I know. But they are true.
It`s crazy. I thought this journey would be finished. I felt in Angkor already before I met her that the road is over and that would be the highlight in the end. And then it became even better. Hard for me to believe sometimes. I feel just grateful big time.

Now it turns out is the beginning of a total new world. With a wonderful, shining woman from Argentinia, with a Jewish Name from Poland and roots from Syria. I believe I can see these in her beautiful face.
So my World is complete now and I am so happy that I forced myself for this third part of my travel.

Since she left (we are still writing each other a lot and just skyped last night) I met more great people. Two amazing Germans I will keep in touch, the couple from Puerto Rico, who translated the wonderful Spanish letter she left for me and shared with me my bliss and joy. We even connect our blogs. Link will follow soon. Also I met a guy and a woman from Romania. She gives me some Spanish words. We have a great time but for sure I miss her a lot. And I know that is more difficult for her right now but I will face this also very soon. But I am not afraid. Okay, from time to time. But I did my choice and I trust my friends and family that you feel happy with me, even if I shouldn`t stay in Germany for a longer time. Again. But now it`s time to make plans, think about in which way I can makie a living in the next time and looking for a place, where we can live together. And I think we have to see very soon again. So it might turn put that I have to go to South America (what is also still a dream of mine). But we need a little Patience. Not easy! I am happy about any kind of tip and ideas.

I want to thank everybody who shared this road with me that leaded finally to Hapiness, love and Compassion. Thank you so much. Without you it wouldn`t have been possible. I love you for sharing with me. So many phantastic people.
My Heart is with you Nathalie. I love your rithym, your dancing, you smell, your charisma. I could continue endless. I love everything about you!!! Trust in us. We will find a way. It is not only easy right, now. But its so worth it and I “just” want to life with you. You changed my life. I will always trie to be better than before. You are everything. I will wait for you as long as I breath. Te Amo! I miss you! Muchos Besos!

Thank you for sharing that with me. I am the happiest man in the world!!!
