What you were saying about existing with someone in the same time and space and sharing experiences with them is something i have been thinking about a lot recently too. My toddler is always saying "watch me watch me!" And i have gotten super existential about it also as she is really saying "experience this with me/i want to share this with you!" I just had a baby a few months ago and it is so surreal being in my 30s and being "mom" now, and trying to get a hold on myself and my hobbies. I really love watching your videos and thoughts about your hobbies and especially this videos meditations on nature and painting. I have not painted but i plan on starting a nature journal with watercolor and sketches too. There was a woman 100 years ago named Charlotte Mason who encouraged the children she taught to keep nature journals (if you want to look her up). Anyways, thank you for being my youtube friend, even though we dont know each other!

What a beautiful place and beautiful art! 🤩 For me nature is so important! 💚 I realized that when I had to live 2 months in an apartment where I couldn’t see any plants or trees from the window!

I also have an on/off relationship with drawing, and even water color painting - and it's also due to perfectionism in part. But also time. I should do it more often, as it's relaxing. Thanks for bringing us along the journey, great inspo. I got a TN watercolor book so should be no excuse anymore.

I’m in a similar phase! I wanted to try solo camping to get closer to nature but it’s kinda intimidating, and also campsites in Germany are too crowded (in my opinion 😆) and not very “in the” nature. “Wild” camping is illegal but tolerable if you don’t leave anything behind.

Start small!! I want to camp too but I'm not that confident yet so I'm taking it easy with little day trips here and there and making it manageable hehe

I would recommend to visit the Gardens of the World in the North Eastern part of Berlin. As the name suggests, it has differently themed gardens from around the world.

What is the pen you are using when putting leave on trees?
