We finally moved
Added 2025-11-12 12:44:46 +0000 UTCYou can officially congratulate us, we finally moved! 🌿✨
It’s not a big house in the woods (not yet!), but a small apartment surrounded by one of the most magical forests I’ve ever seen. Yes, it’s smaller than our previous place, and yes, it’s still not cheap for us (prices here went crazy because of the refugee crisis, even realtors were shocked 😅), but honestly, none of that matters anymore..
Because every morning, when I wake up and look out the window, I see the forest.
And it’s just… wow.
That was the most important thing for us to be close to nature.
And somehow, we ended up in a place that feels like a portal to another world. There’s a nature reserve nearby, a swamp, lakes, and endless moss-covered trees. Moose and swans live here, and there are so many kinds of mushrooms, plants, and insects that even ChatGPT was amazed when I showed some photos! 😂
I actually found reviews on Google Maps where people say this forest feels like stepping into a fairytale and they’re absolutely right!
We still have a lot to do, a lot of things to buy and set up, but starting every morning with a walk in this forest feels like pure magic. The air is so clean and fresh that it literally changes how you feel.
And I mean that physically.
In just two nights here, even sleeping on a couch (because we don’t have a bed yet), I suddenly slept through the night without any of the muscle spasms or restless legs that have been haunting me for over a year. I honestly couldn’t believe it. Usually, no matter what I do, it happens every single night. But here, nothing. Just peace for two nights in row !
We go to sleep at 8 PM, wake up early with the first light, and take long walks through the forest.
It feels like we’re finally breathing again.
It made me realize how far humanity has drifted from what we truly are. People have built these concrete, soulless walls around themselves, living 24/7 disconnected from the essence of life and it’s no wonder the world feels so out of balance.
We’ve forgotten that we are nature. The more we destroy it, the more we destroy ourselves.
And feeling the difference here physically, mentally, spiritually- is beyond words. It’s a reminder that healing doesn’t only come from medicine or therapy, but from returning to our roots, to what we were always meant to be part of.
So yes, this place isn’t perfect, it’s smaller, it’s far from the city, but it feels like home.
One day, I still dream of a little wooden cabin somewhere deep in the forest.
But for now, we’ll start learning about local plants, mushrooms, and maybe even grow our own food. Slowly, step by step, toward a more self-sufficient, peaceful life close to nature, and far from the noise 🌲

2025-11-15 10:38:57 +0000 UTCAbsolutely, yes. Nature really surprises us every single day always showing something new, something beautiful, and gently teaching us how to live in harmony. It’s incredible how she reminds us, just by her own example, that such balance is truly possible✨🌱

2025-11-15 10:38:52 +0000 UTCThank you so much, Klaus, your words are always incredibly kind and thoughtful. Poland truly has so many forests, each of them different and full of their own quiet magic. Have you ever visited the reserve where the bison live? And honestly, I feel as if this forest somehow found us and pulled us in. I already sensed it the very first time we came to see the house, even before I had walked through it. There was this feeling of peace, of coming home, like the trees were welcoming us. ✨🌲 Maybe that’s why everything here feels so healing as if the forest knows exactly what every soul needs..

2025-11-12 15:00:42 +0000 UTCOh Anastasia, that sounds so great - the nature-environment you could move to, your physical condition in these first few days! Just your description already reveals the sparkle in your eyes. The images attached convey a good impression of what paradise you moved to. It reminds me of the magical worlds that are so vividly described by C.S. Lewis in his famous "Narnia Chronicles" (which I devoured decades ago). As you describe it, it really sounds like a refuge for your souls. That's why I commented one of your uploads re your removal couple of days ago: We've spent all our holidays in Poland for 20 years now always with the forest around the corner - and of course mushroom picking in early autumn. We love the forest there (it's somehow different from the kind of forest we have here, where we live). Heartfelt congratulations! 🍄🟫🌲
