Arriving time in Antakya.<\/p>\n
For some days I stayed in some pensions\/hotel. On the way to move forward to a free accommodation I moved toward cheaper hotels.<\/p>\n
Finally I got offered a place to stay in a apartment. \u00a0It’s rented by five gen\u00e7 (young men) who spent there free time there. Playing cards, watching movie’s.\u00a0It’s kind of ideal to me, becaue most of the day it’s no-one there. And finally it’s a place where I can meditate good. It’s not clear if I can stay there for a longer period….. will see. Tomorrow I continue clean the flat, so I can meditate and make yoga on the floor. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
So today I went to Barbaras place. I met her 3 years ago. Nearly everyone in the city seems to know her. See is german, lives here and has a hostel\/pension and is very activ for peace. The offer of her is to stay for a week for some exchange work. Wonderful. I will take that offer as soon i need it.<\/p>\n
There days it feels like a break through in termes of arriving, connecting with people.<\/p>\n
Antakya is a open city for Muslims, Christian’s from different traditions and Jewish. People live like friends together. The city of 220.000 people is hosting 180.000 Syrians. Wow<\/p>\n
15 help organisations are sitting here.<\/p>\n
Peace birds for Syria Project is on the way to become introduced here and there. So next week I am invited in a Syrian school, directed by a protestant church.<\/p>\n
Today I was sitting at a little tree square in the middle of the Antakya bazar. After a while everyone around was taking care of me, tea, coffee, bread, fruit, conversations, \u00a0and even money was offered. A very nice and touching atmosphere.<\/p>\n
Maybe in some days I am ready to visit my host family from 3 years ago at the seaside.<\/p>\n
Turkey is wonderful here. Love it.<\/p>\n
