I realised I still care too much about my stuff.

Why do I still care?

Soon I will be cared for by Ghana.

My family.

Completely

No need to care.

I decided to give away my complete fashion archive for free.

To whoever wants it.

It will be beneficial for them.

A lot of things have been given to me for free in my life.

Love

Care

Support

And I shall honour that.

But only when it feels good.

No need to impress anybody.

No need to give more than I should because I believe I should.

Feeling abundant and giving from that place is the only way.

What I feel I have truly have in abundance, are my thoughts.

Niagara Falls

No shortage of water.

I’m getting rid of everything.

My life from Hamburg, London, Hastings and Amsterdam.

Absolutely no attachments.

I’m leaving Tuesday.

03.03.2021

One way.

To Ghana

Did I mention?

I am scared and excited.

The moment when you are buckled up to a roller coaster and it goes ever so slowly up the first ramp.

This is how I feel because I have absolutely no idea what’s gonna happen.

I could crash.

Sure.

But my instinct is buzzing.

I have an idea.

A vision.

An inkling.

All my stuff, everything precious to me is going.

Ha, every day when I change my underwear, the worn one goes straight in the bin. So do my socks.

How cool is that?

It’s interesting.

When you have someone you love visiting and they ask you if they should bring something, we usually just mention something from the top of our head. It’s usually to do with memories from a life before like Marmite or Paracetamol.

Nothing really we desperately need.

So no need to bring anything.

We’re just being polite.

On both sides.

All I’m taking with me are Paracetamol and Nosedrops.

The cheapest there is.

Because those are the two (three) things the Dutch swear by.

The idea of getting a Magazine to pay me while in Ghana was still rolling around my head. Not having money or a job at the moment was still unnerving me a bit so it seemed to be a good idea.

F88k that!

I have a job.

I’m going to Ghana to listen and then see, listen, feel, smell, touch, taste Africa.

I will translate and communicate.

For free.

For everyone who wants to listen.

Here.
