Starting from
01° March 2020
my new experience begins.
I declared this year 2020 to be an
„ecological year
for inspiration and personal development“

and I declared it to be
„the year 2020 of reduction“.

During this year, I would like to dedicate my time to:
-
Things that are important to my family and me.
(www.ruegen-ruhe-rattelvitz.de) -
Topics I am passionate about.
What I am passionate about is everything around these 5 topics:
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- Medical plants
- Biology of plants
- Health
- Ecology
- Agriculture
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
And who knows if n°2 might influence n° 1 somehow in future?
While I will study these topics, I will probably find out 🙂
During this year of experimentation I need to survive somehow. Being without a job, without earning money, I decided to L I M I T myself in everything that is possible to limit.
This includes:
- car
I will sell my car and will go by bike.
I bought a 1-year-50%-off train ticket.
- restaurants
I will need to cook at home – for myself and for friends.
- clothes
I will buy second-hand, if anything is really, really necessary
- medical costs
I will need to try to adopt the most healthy lifestyle ever to make this happen and to avoid any medical expenses… 🙂
- home investments
any kind of investments as equipment, furniture, decoration, etc. into our appartment should stop with the 1°of March.
- vacation
no vacation will be planned for this year 2020.
- gym
I will search for somebody to take over my gym contract.
I will do sports outside instead.
- gifts
I will rather think of people or can do home-made gifts 🙂
- visit friends by car
friends are invited to come to my house.
- comsumption of expensive food like fish/meat/exotic food
I will rent a small piece of land and harvest by my own.
And I will try to consume local and seasonal food avoiding the supermarket as much as I can.


All of this,
leads to the experiment to reduce everything of what I usually consumed and of what my daily way-of-living used to be like.
This requires
a big change
and as this effects also the people around me (no restaurants, no visits by car, no expensive presents for birthday parties) I would like to invite all of my friends, family and people who would like to stay in touch, to share or remember my self-declared principles.
This will be a big help for me to realise them.
T H A N K S
in advance for your patience with me in this year 2020 while I am „going crazy“. 🙂
