We are off to Thailand in 3 days!!

It is almost time! We are so excited!
In just 3 days - on Sunday, we are off for the winter! Jippieh! The kids (and we adults) are already counting the days since 2 weeks. Our children even say in the evening: " please let`s go to bed really early, so that Sunday comes faster!"

That is so cute! We are in the middle of preparing and packing, even though we feel relaxed.

Maybe it is because we have already travelled as a family so much.
We know Thailand and we know how it feels there. Just great! yet we are filled with joy and excitement of our adventorous life that lies ahead of us!

I am already going to prepare for the Raw Transformation Retreat! You are more than welcome to join us for this life transforming event, there are still free spaces!


We started our day with a green smoothie with maca. The kids had some carrots and avocado after that.
Just yesterday some kelp noodles arrived in our mailbox, so we were all excited of celebrating a special meal today. We made a cashew basil pesto and prepared veggies.
So this was kelp noodles with pesto. We had carrots, tomatos, salad and cucumber with it. This was great. In the afternoon we had a biiig green juice, Jaro just made.



We are juicing kilos of wild edibles these days, and once more chickweed our favorite. The picture you see, is around 6 kilos!!
The juice was celery, kale, carrot, and chikweed.
This amount does last for maybe 2 or 3 days.

There was a nice fruit meal for dinner. A honey melon. This was it. I enjoyed another relaxed evening in the pool and sauna, to do my training

We are leaving to Thailand!

Rawfoodfamily food diary 13/11/2009

Our family is spiralising towards our big goal THAILAND.and the movement is faster and faster every day.



We are preparing and organizing, while all of our online work is continuing.

Food wise it is still a miracle. I personally still eat so little since a couple of weeks, that I cant`t believe it myself.

But I feel awesome with this little amount of food!
I really concentrate on the green juice. I have the impression, that since I juice also wild edibles in my - our - juice, the need for real food has just decreased. I don`t know for sure, but this might be a connection.

So lets get real what we ate today.
I had a big glas of Water this morning, with super green powder and chlorella.
After that I shared the green smoothie ceremony with my family.
We had spinach, banana and water plus a little maca in this smoothie.

The kids had a mish mash afterwards. This is avocado and crushed carrot, cucumber and pieces of tomato all mish-mashed together with a drop of oil and some salt. They love that. Benny loves it even more simple. He just wanted and had plain carrot and avocado.

As lunch they had 2 kakies each together with wild edibles. We eat chickweed these days, because it doesn not taste bitter at all.

I had a little tiny piece of chocolate at afternoon, and a big glas of green juice in the evening.

The green juice for all, was made out of kale, chickweed (growing wild here in the forest), celery and 3 carrots.
Kids had a chocolate udding as dinner. Thats avocado, honey, lucuma and carob powder.

I will have a little handful of cashews and some dates lateron this evening, after a swimming and sauna session her, but that is it!

The Rawfoodfamily food diary 07/11/2009

Today we have prepacked our backpacks for our trip to Thailand. Ever done that with 3 kids? Quite a task. We will go light and only have 2 pcks to carry,...
Anyway: Over the last days, I was eating very little. I mostly was drinking. No need for solid food. Felt great.
The kids of course eat normal. We had lots of avocado, carrots, cucumber tomatos mish-mashs. Also we had some nice ripe fruits like honey melon and kakies for in between. Today the kids and Katie had a big salad as diner with avocado, orange and a little bit of soya sauce as dressing.

I had some greener gras powder with water for breakfast, but
I mostly lived on Green juices with celery, wild edibles out of our garden, apples picked from our apple tree , or grapes also from our garden, carrots, black kale.

I also had choco smoothies once a day. That is hemp seeds, bananas, water, cacao powder, maca and a tiny bit of salt.
That was what I had for the last 4 days. Yesterday there was a small salad (one big handful), but this was it.

Rawfoodfamily food diary 1/11/2009

Beautiful family Sunday. We had the best breakfast on earth. DURIAN!!
The kids couldn`t wait, for it and woke up quite early.

We enjoyed this with all our heart and soul, and felt completly nourished until noon.
Then we had a green smoothie with marine phytoplankton and some maca (spinach, kale, water and banana).

Lateron we went to the aquarium in Torquay, a place the kids really love.



We enjoyed ourself as a family and spent the afternoon there. See them talking to the pinguins.



At home we made a big green juice out of nettles, celery, kale, spring greens, carrots, and oranges.

Everybody had a big glass, and I 2 of `em.
Then we had a big salad with some cashew basil pesto, and a nice medjool date after that.

This was the dinner, and the kids went to bed. I went to my first party since months, and it was a non raw food party.

They had pancakes, drank alcohol and smoked (thank good outside and not in the room!).

I really deeply enjoyed myself there, and had the feeling that I could share with them and connect with them. I really enjoyed myself so much being at this party and socialising plus connecting, without the need of swallowing the food, or liquid everybody was consuming.

I just had 2 glasses of water, felt so fresh, clear and still part of the party.

On the same hand I realised how far away this consumtion is for me.

Very interesting and inspiring. I went home at 1am, surrounded by the full moonlight and its magical power, dreaming about our holiday in Thailand.


I love life!!
