A-Fest

"I'm once again transformed"

Finally, I've got some time to show my tremendous gratitude towards all of you and I want to share a little of my experience. Sharing this photo with you guys, where I received the most profound gratitude for gifting my glasses, having goosebumps all over.
Thank you to the whole team of A-fest to create such an incredible experience for all of us, holding a container full of love, gratitude, and acceptance for us to grow and connect. We see how much energy and hard- hard work you guys are putting in to create this event for us. I and many other A-fester wish for you guys some day to attend A-fest as well from the attendee side, so you could enjoy your own magnificent creation as well.
Special thanks for you my love, Tanya Lopez , for making the magic happen, with so much detail and mind-blowing performances, every single time! I never look someone in the eye the same anymore, after the incredible masked experience room, seeing the universe through the eyes of the beautiful person in front of you. Being inspired by dancing in the mud with Wim Hoff going all-in, hearing the daughter of Kristin Balter, Lolo, singing Beyonce magnificently, sharing cultures side by side with the Rastafarian, doing collectively mindblowing breathwork with Niraj AmAya Naik, seeing the impossible happening with a simple wooden chair and easy hanging on your hair bun. 
- WOW-!
This was my second A-fest, the Journey continued into even deeper connections, expanding with new soul-mates joining us in Jamaica. Being back in Amsterdam now, reading all the amazing sugar cubes I get shivers all of my body and tears in my eyes. You guys showing me so much inspiration in developing my greatness and showing so much love and acceptance - indescribable.
I'm once again transformed and I'm buzzing with magnetic energy to light up the world.
Magic
