My Travel Story

Hello you wonderful dear people,
Yes, this is not exaggerated, cause you are willing to help people who you maybe even don't know nor ever will meet, so you are wonderful.

Welcome to my page.
I have a dream and had had a dream. For almost centuries I did wanted to travel to India, the birthplace of Buddhism, Yoga, Ayurveda and just so many other wonderful and beautiful philosophies, arts and cultures. But I ever were lacking money, than came corona, than I had a slip disc and finally I even got stolen my luggage, including money (at the moment am I actually in spain). I almost forgot that I actually had this dream. But now, very recently, i came to know this incredible website, started to think about, if it would be ethically ok to use it for getting probably some travel gear together but than arose the idea that I actually could try to raise funds for my old, well kept India dream.
You must know, at the moment am I a bit in a depressed state, all I want to do just does not work out: either people just don't answer or I'm not having the required skills or diploma or I'm just getting demoralised due to laws, people's behaviour or, or, or.
But now I got this idea to finally make it to India, and suddenly is there energy, enthusiasm, euphoria, i just feel again like a true living human being, not anymore like a dark grey zombie.
You must know what India means to me: it's not gonna be just a trip, some vacation sort like thing in a resort. No. India just the birth place of what makes me life. As I already mentioned: Buddhism, Yoga, ayurveda, just this incredible culture, the food, the arts, the music...everything is just has become so much part of me and I just simply wanna finally find out what the hack is truly going on there. I had never been there...
It's said, every spiritual seeker should journey at least once to India. I don't know when I will die. There for, better to go earlier than later. Will you help me to realize this dream?

Because I also need to purchase travel gear, is there also the option given to just send me gear what you don't need. Just send me some pictures of what you have and i gonna tell you if I need it. At the moment am I mostly in need of a good trekking backpack, a sleeping bag wich also takes minus degrees, rain protection such as at least a tarp, a rainjacket and a raintrouser (please make sure that it really still works as rain protection) and this and that small stuff like a pot grasper and so on. So, if you have any of these, just give me a note. (Usually xl/xxl). There is also the option to offer me a place to 

People who donated something and with whom I can meet up, will receive a meditation or yoga session with me.

I'm planning to stay at least one year.
So my plans are first to go back to Germany for all the legal stuff, like passport, visa, vaccinations etc and than- going to India and Nepal. Of course I wanna go to the big places, the key sceneries of the Buddha's life, Kapilavathu (Lumbini), Bodhgaya and so on but also to climb up the Kailash. The Kailash!
