TREEWEEK III

Arrived. Got picked up from the train station. Had pumpkin soup and made myself a name bracelet from some beads. Met some people I'd known online for years — crazy, they really exist. Was tired from travel... early night for me.

Wow, food here is good. Had amazing breakfast and lunch, feeling nourished. People started doing workshops in the afternoon, I went to a "smelling workshop"? Crazy what you find out about people when you smell stuff together. Gonna check out the sauna tonight.

Went for a walk in the woods, got a massage from a bodyworker. We're friends now. Great fun cooking dinner for everyone. A bunch of stuff happened today but I can't remember. Just flowing at this point.

Apparently some people here are winemakers and they brought their own wine? And a Swedish guy has been creating some fermented drink in the basement. Good stuff. I joined some people on a jam and we were super in sync and busted out some crazy tunes in F# minor.

Today everyone felt super relaxed for some reason! We cleaned the house for a big party tonight. Other than that people were kind of just chilling around. I was in the hammock on the porch while someone got a haircut while playing the violin. She played so beautifully I burst out laugh-crying.

We threw a banger party last night. A bunch of my new friends were DJing, I didn't even know they could do that? I did a lot of chilling and chatting this week, it was good to party hard. Woke up in time to make it to the tree planting ceremony. So cute.

Wow, it's already time to go. What a crazy timeline I got into here. I'm gonna miss those people... glad I'm gonna stay in Berlin for another week to TREEcompress.
