(English) New Year at the EC…..intergalactic!
6. 01. 2012(English) Christmas at the EC
30. 12. 2011Actually – there is no business as usual at the EC. Every day is different and brings all kinds of challenges on many levels. So we caught up randomly with just some of the activity going on all over the place to give you some impressions.
Olena from Ukraine for example spent most of the time organizing her home country’s moreEC via the internet. Ewa and Janosh spent days carefully restoring some walls in the villa, while others wrapped our moreEC “retreat huts” for the New Year’s course in Hamburg.
Leonie, Alexandra and Ilona took care of bookkeeping and guest registration in the office, Frank gave explanations on meditation practice in the Yellow room, and our EC electrician Jörg fixed some lamps in the basement of the villa.
Bernd, Jürgen and Frank brought our Christmas tree inside. And – to really get us into a holiday mood – it also finally snowed. A lot!
The snow team ploughed the snow on the road and in the courtyard with the tractor several times a day to enable the cars to go up and down from Immenstadt. The heavy snowstorm loosened a metal board on the roof – so JC climbed up to fix it.
Besides all these activities, of course we also found the time to meditate in the cosy gompa and enjoy winter outside. To warm us up again afterwards, Sonia, Frauke and Henkjan cooked a delicious Italian dinner – for everyone to enjoy some time together before the holidays and to raise some money for moreEC.
Happy holidays from the EC team to everyone

Asi tak před měsícem se v EC sešlo spousta kamarádů a společně si užívali akci zvanou moreEC Football Cup in Bochum. Cílem tohoto nápadu bylo být spolu, dát vznik týmovému duchu, jednoduše kopat do míče a prostě si užívat přítomný okamžik. Tímto fotbalovým utkáním byl podpořen projekt moreEC, takže akce svůj účel rozhodně splnila [...]
