TIMO TOLKKI: Shades of South America; videos from his clinics added

Due to several, shall I say plane arrangements, I finally arrived to the Helsinki airport via Frankfurt at 17:30 on the XMas day 24.12 wearing a t shirt. I forgot my jacket to the luggage and raised a lot of eyebrows in -20 celsius temperature. When I left Sao Paulo the temperature was +34 celsius so it was bit of a shock. :)

 

Overall I travelled almost 100 000km, albeit mostly by plane but also by a bus and an ass. It was heavy but it was rewarding. The thing I feared the most was the heat and I did encounter temperatures like +42 celsius. But I did get used to that in less than 3 weeks.

 

I went to cities that I have never been in Brazil, 17 in total and it is fair to say that I saw more Brazil than most of Brazilians ever will. Since I don't drink anymore I also had time to actually see something else than the airport, hotel and the venue. I saw places that were so amazing that I really have no words to describe them. The waterfalls in Foz Do Iguacu were one of them. It is one of the new seven wonders of the world.

 

Of course I saw also Paraguay, Colombia, Argentina and Ecuador. All countries rich in tradition and culture. I enjoyed them all very much.

 

One thing that touched me the most was the connectedness of the people. How they greet their friends and how they say goodbye. Coming from a Finnish Lutheran atmosphere that is not always handled the same way here. Nokia-disconnecting people:)

 

While in Rome do as the Romans applies to South America more than anything and if you didnt't go there before, you might be in for a surprise:)

 

The seminars were nice and people seemed to enjoy them. Sometimes they were advertised as normal rock concerts, which was not so nice, but these things happen.

 

I met amazing people in the seminars, before and after. Heard lot of amazing really touching stories. Those who were there know by now that one of the main things of the seminar was communication and emotions. I think I delivered my message and what I wanted to share. I still have 2 video blogs up and coming. They cannot reflect really what happened there but you get some idea plus they are fun as well.

 

I am sorry about the cancellations of the 3 seminars in Chile. The promoter cancelled them on the very day I landed to South America based on a claim that "there was no music in my seminars", which is of course an excuse. I also heard some of the people did not get their money back from the tickets they bought. Please send an email to ceo@goldenworks.fi about this with your information.

 

All in all, I want to thank you for coming to my seminar and having the courage to interact and share. I would like to thank Marcelo, Eric, Tiziana, Gus, Daniel and all the people who participated in this trip and the arrangements.

 

Cheers, Timo"
