A Day in Denmark

We had a sleepless night on our way home from Bangkok but this made for an emotional and joyous reunion with Maria when we landed in Perth. After visiting some friends in Mandurah we bee lined south east through magnificent Karri Tree forests on the inland route to a little town called Denmark.

The area around Denmark is gorgeous, fringed by national parks filled with majestic giant trees, stunning coastline with turquiose water. Could be a chance of some good waves over summer, only fault to pick is that it’s a bit chilly at night (last night 10 degrees) and the flies are on steroids. I believe it gets pretty busy over the holiday season so there should be plenty of work, it might just be a good place to stay a while…

Yoga in Nong Khai, Thailand

It was time to replenish our bodies after the Carnarvon farming experience, so we returned to Nong Khai Alternative Centre in the north east of Thailand (where we first learnt yoga, Feb 2010). The Yoga house is located in a lush garden next to the Mekong River about 6km from the friendship bridge to Laos.

With Pancho and Beatrix as our teachers we were guided through a month of asana practice, meditation, pranayama, pranavidia, kriya, yogic anatomy and theology. Basically a month of therapy. www.pantrix.net

We loved the whole experience. Learning tools for life, meeting great new friends, eating delicious Thai food and bending into positions that would make your cat jealous.
