Haven't been around for a while. Reason why? I was travelling through China for several months. Best experience of my life, so amazing, so beautiful. Wanted to stay but unfortunately fate had other plans so I am back in the Netherlands. Been home two weeks now, and i have no clue what to do .. like at all. I am a bit lost haha... but! plus side: I have massive inspiration and shitloads of time to paint and draw so that's what I am doing.

Devious Journal Entry
"Happy New Year" Well almost. The night of 22nd to 23rd of January is Chinese New Year. Damn, it promises to be an event on its own. Not that the Chinese party like the westerners. No, it's all far more traditional. It seems like the city is being abandoned.

It's 8 degrees (that is in Celcius my friends :) ) the sun is shinning and apparently the winter is on its way if I have to believe my colleagues. I'm not yet convinced about this, or well: I am not hoping for the winter yet, I happen to be quite fond of the summertime. Yesterday I was walking around in a shirt with 24 degrees, enjoying the sun and even getting a little bit of a tan. It's November but my head keeps saying spring. Although, the coloring of the trees around West Lake from bright green in to warm tones of orange, yellow and red is the only indication that it is actually autumn.
Until today. The 8 degrees, although the s
A bit Special, Strange, But Great.
Everything in China is 10 times more valued when it is considered Western or even better: American. For example: Yoga. Everybody seems to be doing that around here. Origins of Yoga? Hinduism and Buddhism as far as I am concerned. Created 3000 or more years ago in the far East [Asia]. You think they should know around here how it works right? But NOOOO everybody wants to practice Yoga like the… AMERICANS do. Because they are so good at is, and they have a lot of Yoga Masters, and they have better skills and knowledge than the Chinese do. Seriously? :|
Everybody wants to be the first, the quickest in line. People don't hesitate to jump th
