EVS Schloss Glarisegg 2013 in retrospective

Aaaaand..IT’S A WRAP!! 🙂

Small community life

We had the chance to spend little time in a small community settled by a forest somewhere between Bern and Zurich. It was nice to meet people that love living a very simple life in the naked nature. They wash their faces/shower with rain water in an improvised space in the forest  and they always cook and eat together sharing the little that they have. Unfortunately this way of living is almost impossible in the winter time so our friends make sure to enjoy the green nature as much as possible.

Lichterloo – Fire Festival

Lichterloo was inspired by festivals such as Burning Man and it can be described by words like:  sustainability, responsibility, joining in and living together peacefully,  free from profit – values the world needs more than ever.

[02] I am here

So Much LoveWords & Music by Michael Stillwater
Never thought there could be so much love
Never knew there were so many colors.
Used to think that God was somewhere high above.
Now I know that God is in each other.So much love inside of me, only want to set it free,
Taking off the ceiling to reveal the sky.

I am here to release all of my fears, 
Come to peace with all my tears
And discover what it means to be alive.

Used to be afraid to say I love you
Now I know that I can really care
There were times when I didn’t think that I could pull through
Then you taught me what it means to really share (Chorus)

Confused so very long I grew unclear
‘Bout exactly what my purpose was for living
There were places in my heart I never would go near
‘Til I found out that my life is here forgiving (Chorus)

Together we have come so very far
Nothing in this world by which to measure
It’s like travelling beyond the fartherst star
Just to find inside our heart the buried treasure.(Chorus)
