A few more paintings

With all the work and much needed rest, I still found the time one morning before haying to paint a little. Found this super cute tutorial for cactus and practiced feathers again.

Arrived in Santiago, staying a couple nights in the super cute and environmentally friendly Hostel Tambo Verde. Walking around Santiago and especially the Barrio Bellavista, the murals are everywhere and so colorful! I especially like this one with all it represents  Full of symbolism  Plaza de las Armas and the cathedral, rebuilt 4 times after serious earthquakes Top of Cerro San Cristobal  Hostal Tambo Verde A much needed travel tip found on Tourdumondiste: which banks do not charge a local fee for withdrawing money, a complete table of 33 countries , so useful! Scroll quite alot until finding the table 'FRAIS ET PLAFONDS DE RETRAIT DES BANQUES LOCALES PAR PAYS'.

One painting a day

And while I do not get up at 4:30 am every morning for the full Miracle Morning routine, it did motivate me to start the day with the '6-minute version' before 8am. I really enjoy taking the time in the morning before going to work to do something for myself, my personal development and my personal well-being.

As we are circling around the fire singing over and over this beautiful song all together led by Inka with the drum and after being smudged with palo santo by Concetta, we all really arrive here, at Ojo del Mar, at this Yoga Teacher Training. The 15 of us students meet each other and connect with our teachers - this is our new community for the next 21 days. And what a way to start! Inka and Concetta immediately seem to be the perfect teachers, sharing their knowledge and making this spiritual space sacred and safe for what is to come. As I realize where I am, the full moon reflecting on the ocean waves and the orange fire making everyone's face glow, I feel I have arrived exactly where I need to be.  Smudging each of us with palo santo to purify the energy around us as we enter this new circle Full moon ref...
