About this I will report later.<\/p>\n<p>First I try to update, step by step, its more then 3 month, since I wrote regularly. And there is a lot to report. For me to reflect and for you, to hopefully enjoy reading, maybe getting inspired.<\/p>\n<p>The area, where I am now is beautiful. Tourist come here rarely. Its at a water reservoir, called Beas River. I am invited by Sunil&#8217;s and Rina&#8217;s family. They have one 3 year old son. And&#8230;. sure, they don&#8217;t live alone, all the relatives are also living in that house surrounded by nature. Sunil stopped me yesterday, passing by his immigration office. He saw me walking on the street, drove behind me, and blocked with his car my way.<br \/>\nEarlier the day, the beautiful family I stayed with, invited me to stay for a while, some days&#8230;.. Because I packed already before the breakfast&#8230;.. I was kind of ready for walking&#8230;.. and the offer came at the breakfast table, I had to find a answer inside&#8230;. stay or walk&#8230;.. ok&#8230;. then I took the invitation. But then they stepped back from the invitation, because they forgot, no-one will be at home (wedding)&#8230;.. ok&#8230;. then I went back to the walking plan.<br \/>\nWhen Sunil stopped me, I just walked an hour or so&#8230;.. and came for a little while (as I thought) to his office, he then offered to come to his home &#8211; very friendly &#8211; &#8230;.. so again, changing plans&#8230;..<br \/>\nSo now I am sitting in his office, at an extra desk, with a laptop, so I can finally type with 10 fingers (in the last year always only using my smartphone)&#8230;. and I want to go for it. Maybe I can update all of the last month in the next days&#8230;&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Univers is really perfect, isn&#8217;t it? (In the last days I was thinking, coming to a city, I mostly do my writings, but wouldn&#8217;t it be much more beautiful, to stay more in nature, where also thoughts can flow better, to write, and then continue walking towards the next city&#8230;.. Cities are always a kind of mark points, but mostly there are not so great to stay there toooo long&#8230;. as I feel often, and especially there is air pollution and sound pollution&#8230;.)<\/p>\n<p>Smile<br \/>\nThomas<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Any feedback or question<br \/>\nFacebook: Thomas Heinrich Schm\u00f6ckel<br \/>\nFacebook: steppps peacewalk<br \/>\nEmail: Steppps@gmx.de<br \/>\nWhatsapp: +30 698 0654542<br \/>\nFotos on instagram: schmockelthomasheinrich<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Dear friends, I walked 2\/3 of the way from Amritsar towards Daramshala.
