From Happyness Guesthouse to Pure Happyness / Get together after one year
I was so excited to meet to meet them all again. After all it has been almost exactly one year since my last trip. Raj picked me up and yes: in Nepal only the driver is wearing a helmet. Hmmmmmmmm…. After Laxmi and myself hugged with tears in our eyes I entered the orphanage to…
Nepal Update / Finally Rice
I am always delighted and happy to see how the kids are growing and how the new place made a big difference for them. Looking forward to spending time with them again in October.
Help Fund – Nepal is calling
A year ago I raised 8000€ to support Laxmi´s orphanage and the kids. We were able to create a new home and paid rent for 1 1/2 years. I am going back in Oktober to pay the remaining 6 month (that was the deal), buy school equipment like pencils and water colour and as I learned…
Meet Oscar and Billie Street Artists / Summer in the City
As often, when I do have a home office day, I need to walk around to ease my mind, move my body, connect to the world and get inspired – besides doing grocery. Berlin is a fabulous place to ease ones mind and get inspired. If you really allow yourself to wonder around and take…

Happy Home / Excitement on all Levels / Quality Time
A day before we moved I wanted to create excitement and learn how the children feel about the new home. “Let’s draw.” “Oh yes, but what sister?” ” How about your new home, you or just simply happy faces?” It didn’t take 5 minutes to convince them. I really enjoyed the special time I…
Already Past Tense / Earthquake – nevertheless: Happyness in the House
For me and most of us who have never been in a situation like this, it is almost impossible to understand or feel how live is for people in less fortunate circumstances,that get even tougher after such an earth quake. Temporary housing, poor electrify supply due to regular brown outs, questionable sanitary facilities and to…
The Real Deal / Wittness / Fingerprint Proof
3 days ago we went to sign the lease agreement for the orphanage. I decided to take the oldest child with us. We walked from the old place to the new one exploring the new neighbourhood. We saw many nice fields, growing vegetables, a fish farm and heard children’s laughter. The new place is walking…
