I am a traveller

Nach einer Woche im wilden Sueden fuehl ich mich wie der Fisch im Teich, die Made im Speck, der Pastor in der Kirche, das Blei im Stift, die Punkte auf einem Marienkaefer.... Als Reisender braucht man nicht viel; einen Rucksack, Abenteuerlust, Neugier und noch ein paar Leute zum Spass haben... die Sonne soll mein Wecker sein; wenn ich muede bin, dann schlafe ich, wenn ich Geld brauche, dann arbeite ich und der Rest ist pures Geniessen und Entspannung.

Die Stadt ist ein grosser Spielplatz und die Vibrationen der Bars und Pubs fuelen sich wirklich gut an und die Menschen wie Leute sind unglaublich hilfsbereit und freundlich... das alles und die gleichen Interessen teilt man sich mit einer riesigen, offenen Travellergemeinschaft aus der ganzen Welt und den Verrueckten die hier wohnen.

After one week in the wild wild south i feel like a fish in the water, the salt in the soup, a guy in paradise.. you do not need much for travelling; a backpack, the lust for adventure and some people of the same kind.. i do not need no clock, the sun should wake me up, if am tyred, i gonna sleep, if i need a rest, i gonna rest as well, when i need money, i go to work and the rest is simple : lay back and no worries, what comes around,comes around.

The city is a nice playground, i like to go out and feeling the vibrations of the cosy bars and pubs and sharing it ith a big traveller community and the friendly locals as well.

Come to the land down under, where women glow and men plunder..

Traveling in a fried-out combie
On a hippie trail, head full of zombie
I met a strange lady, she made me nervous
She took me in and gave me breakfast
And she said,

Do you come from a land down under?
Where women glow and men plunder?
Cant you hear, cant you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover.

Buying bread from a man in brussels
He was six foot four and full of muscles
I said, do you speak-a my language?
He just smiled and gave me a vegemite sandwich
And he said,

I come from a land down under
Where beer does flow and men chunder
Cant you hear, cant you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover.

Lying in a den in bombay
With a slack jaw, and not much to say
I said to the man, are you trying to tempt me
Because I come from the land of plenty?
And he said,

Oh! do you come from a land down under? (oh yeah yeah)
Where women glow and men plunder?
Cant you hear, cant you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover.

.. it's never easy to get up in the morning when you don't remember what happend the day before. I saw that nicolas found the message i wrote on the sickness bag.. i think it explains enough.

To be honest: i played the sqnd dune in the video.

Don't you think they were wearing cool clothes back in the 80ies?

This sentence is you:
"what comes around,comes around"

It was incredible how you began your night and how you finished it. I think it explains enough, too... hahahah
But it was amazing to hear your stories... if we see each other in Madrid next summer, we are going to miss your spirit Jens... for sure!!!

PS: And when I found about your message... I laughed a lot... that was the best part of Yohei's post!!
