    real-virtual Treeleaf retreat in Europe!

    Hi everybody,

    I just want to let you know that I will be in Europe, most likely Belgium, in December 2011 and we will have a two-three days retreat with sewing, samu, friendly dokusan and Shukke Tokudo. The idea is to invite all of you guys to join in and practice in the virtual real what we do in real virtual.
    So please pencil it down and let us know if you want to be part of this first gathering on the good old european soil.

        Lovely idea, Taigu sensei.

        I would love to join you in la Belgique.
        May I bring some friends/pupils too?

          Hi Ronald,

          That's the idea ...You may bring people even new to this practice. We welcome everybody. We will have three priests in training and make sure to get all the logistics well sorted. I am not charging anything for this retreat, just the price for accomodation, food and my ticket. So, it should not be an expensive business.

            Sounds like a great opportunity and a sin to miss it!
            Belgium is quite close, and there are plenty of cheap flights from Barcelona to Brussels.

            Count me in!

                  Hi everybody

                  We will try to sort the dates out by April so everybody willing to take part can make the necessary booking and plan it well ahead.

                    My boss is based in Germany, maybe I can try to arrange a face-to-face with him in December. Please keep me in the loop.

                      Taigu,

                        If I can, I will go. Is there anyone from Sweden/Scandinavia going?

                          Hi.

                          Yes! :roll:

                          If all goes well we'll be having some swedes and others (maybe) coming along from up here...

                          I volunteer myself to make some sort of mess out of the swedes travelling arrangements, as we might all be able to go together, in a minivan or something...
                          So if you are in sweden around that time and want to join us in this, please pm me.
