I think it's a privilege
to meet people with different cultures and backgrounds. That’s also
why i love to travel so much. There are so many other ways to life
your life then the way I’m doing it. I love being open and learning
about these other ways.
So while traveling it is
quite easy to meet new people. But it is even easy-er to meet a
summer love! Especially when you are surrounded by people that are
traveling as well and in a good mood. It all depends if your open to
it.
While traveling i wasn't
really open for a summer date. I was actually loving not being in to
somebody at all for a while.
Half way down the trip we
stayed with friends of mine who have moved to Chile. It was amazing to
see them and see where and how they are living their life now. They
have three small kids. Which made it pretty intense. Nothing more
then big respect for how she's running the family life.
So after our visit in
Chile it was time to do some serious chilling. We went to the San
Blas Islands in Panama. Have you heard of these islands? They are
thru paradise!! A group of little tropical islands being owned by the
Kuna Indians. The best thing about it is that the woman are the
bosses of their island! Just how it's suppose to be, right!?
So we stayed on one of
these islands, which can't really host more then 30 people. There is
hardly anything on the island. There are little cabins made from palm
trees all the way. Every cabin has a few beds. There where 2 toilets
and 2 showers with salty water. There was one big kitchen where the
island family provided all the guests with three meals a day. There
was a little main cabin/house where you could buy some water, crisps,
cookie or toothpaste. That’s it. Ow, no i'm forgetting they most
important....the Rum!
It was a true magical
place! I found pure relaxation. No impulses all the time. Noting that
'you have to do'. Only thing around you was nature. It was lovely to
swim in the clear blue water between the fish. But the most magical
was the thing that happened at night. There was bioluminesence!
Plankton that lights up blue at night. A-frecking-mazing!!!
Ok, ok, ok I can hear you
think..so that was the romantic part?
It sort of was but no,
there was more. On the island lived a family. One of them was a
youngish Indian man. He's ant is the boss of the island. He was
working for her. And yes, he was the one I spend a romantic night
with. In the evening a bunch of us where hanging out, playing cards
and drinking rum. The dining area was the only area with light and
there was music. Ow and let's not forget our little buddy’s who
came out at night; the gecko’s.
So there was some eye
contact thru out the evening and after a while there was some body
contact. The evening became night and the lights where turned off,
everybody had gone to bed.
Where I slept....in a
hammock in the strong arms of a handsome Indian, under a palm tree overlooking
the sea!We talked for hours about his life and my life. Two complete
different worlds.
It felt like we where the
only ones there. The only other thing I could hear besides out voices
was the ocean and the wind going thru the leafs of the palm tree's.
Until....really early in
the morning. When the family got up to prepare breakfast and we heard
some giggling.
So besides the giggling of
other people it was they most perfect place and way to wake up. For
me it could have lasted for ever......
