The German Baltic Sea coast was recently in the news a bit, as [the open Baltic Sea has frozen](https://www.ndr.de/nachrichten/mecklenburg-vorpommern/frostig-selten-wunderschoen-ostsee-und-bodden-im-eis-erstarrt,ostseeeis-102.html) some points. While Brandenburg gets some thawing weather the next few days, the northern part of Meck-Pomm still seems to balance a bit below zero for the next few days. Thus, hopefully, the spectacular icy sea can be still seen. So, let's take a tour to the beach! Swimwear is not required this time; thermal underwear could be more appropriate. More specifically, we will go to the island Usedom and walk from Zemplin eastwards along the beach. I cannot really anticipate the conditions there; there is the chance that it will be very difficult to walk due to icy grounds, but it might be also just fine. Also, I cannot anticipate how cold it will feel in the wind coming from the sea. Thus we have to be a bit flexible regarding the hiking plan, we might be able to do a long hike, but possibly we also need to shorten it and maybe have a Glühwein in one of the towns there. We will meet on Saturday at 11:53 at the train station Zempin on the island Usedom. The easiest way to get there is this connection: \- 8:23 RE 3 from Berlin Hbf to Angermünde\. \- 9:31 RE 30 from Angermünde to Züssow \- 11:10 RB 23 from Züssow to Zempin We will end our hike either in Heringsdorf or in one of the towns before. From there, we will depart around 18:30 back to Berlin; arrival in Berlin will be around 22:30. Important things to note: * This is an easy hike on advanced underground. You should wear proper non slippery hiking shoes which can withstand wet grounds. * It will be cold on the weekend. Expect freezing temperatures. Snow and ice is possible. * You are all responsible for yourself. None of us is mountain guide or something like that. * There won't be too many Späties at the beach, so have enough water and food with you. * Please note that the number of participants is limited, because at a certain size a group gets virtually unmanageable. As the demand may be higher than the number of available spots, please be fair and only RSVP if you are sure that you can make it. If you learn later that you cannot take part, please update your RSVP accordingly.

**Feel welcome to a warm, supportive space among women, a circle where community, mindfulness, and quiet magic can be felt.** 💫In this special gathering, we bring together the heart-opening spirit of a cacao ceremony, guided trance journeys with the drum, and the timeless wisdom of fairy tales. **Ceremonial cacao helps us soften out of the everyday and move into a deeper connection** with ourselves, our bodies, and the shared energy of the circle. 🥁 **The steady rhythm of the frame drum gently leads us on journeys into the non-ordinary reality.** These shamanic trance states allow images, insights and intuitive guidance from the spiritual dimension to emerge. The journeys are also an invitation to explore our own inner landscape in a safe, grounded and supported way. **This women’s circle is a space for** • Pausing and replenishing • Heart-opening and gentle self-connection • Guided inner journeys through drum rhythm • Community beyond roles and expectations • Listening, feeling, and simply being No previous experience is needed.

1 EURO DONATION FEE PER PERSON IS REQUIRED (on site, in cash), to pay back the Meetup subscription fees and support my Events. READ THE DESCRIPTION WITH THE INFO (IMPORTANT). We take a walk in Berlin to meet new people or people we already know 😁 It's a way to spend a few hours together on a Saturday afternoon. **How it works?** The concept is very simple: * We meet at Sonnenallee Station at 14,15 o'clock (we use the Whatsapp Chat to find each other: I will post there my exact location outside the station) * I wait for people for 10 minutes, till 14,25, then we start to walk direction Treptower Park, crossing the entire park 🌳🌳🌳 and going along the Spree river, to then go further * We go on along the Landwehrkanal, exploring Kreuzberg 🏠 * The total length of the walk is about 8kms * We land finally here to take coffee, a drink, or some food, and spend more time together ([https://maps.app.goo.gl/RsUCxwDKK6yVtiF48](https://maps.app.goo.gl/RsUCxwDKK6yVtiF48)) I consider that the event will last in overall around 4 hours (2 hours of walk and 2 hours at the Cafe/Restaurant), but people are free to stay together longer, if they want 🙂 What I provide is leading the walk and the people at the Cafe, but I do not force anyone to stay shorter or longer. I do not provide a "personal support" for people who arrive after 14,25 (do not write to me expecting "private support"). You are responsible to check for the weather and decide if come or not. Thanks for understanding. If you have to contact me, make it via Whatsapp, not here on Meetup.
