Hey Sleepers - Greeting from Hamburg

Hi everybody,

I'm new on this great forum. I just want to say hello to everybody and give a short introduction of myself. First of all i'm coming from Hamburg/Germany, so i'm not a native english speaker. So i hope you forgive me if something in my posts will be wrong or grammatically incorrect. I will give my best to be understandable. In Germany we have not such a great forum so i decided to join this. I read a few posts and was impressed. Very interesting and informativ things and also nice people everywhere. So i hope i can get better into lucid dreaming, because of this site!

I'm very at the begining learning LDing. I already started a dream journal, but i have problems to write in it when i awake at night after a dream, because i'm often so tired that i directly fall in sleep again. Perhaps you have any tips for that problem!?

Final i would like to ask if somebody here comes from Germany,too? Or does somebody live here for example? I would be glad to get new nice contacts here.

Bye

Hey SleepWolf!

Welcome to DreamViews! Make sure to check out http://www.dreamviews.com/f20/beginn...eaming-124786/ if you haven't yet. It contains basic info, as well as some links to tutorials.

As for the journalling at night, you can try this: when you wake up in the middle of the nigt, try to take a few important key words from the dreams you just had and string them together. Then all you need to do is remember that line for when you wake up finally in the morning. If you are better at visualization, you can memorize certain objects that remind you of the dreams. I do this a lot, since I get too tired to get up and journal as well.

Good luck! If you need anything, don't hesitate to ask :)

Hi Sleepwolf, welcome to the forums... i'm new too, but it's friendly here!

Oh, and I forgot to mention. I can't remember where people on here come from, but I have a friend named Oceandrop, and he's from Germany :)

Hi LucidMoon and paigeyemps,
i definitly agree... very friendly here! Thanks for the welcome. I wish you nice dreams every night :)

LucidMoon, where do you come from?

I'm far away "down under" at the moment in New Zealand. Tho i was born in Europe.

ah, that sounds interesting. Friends of mine were in New Zealand, too. About a year, and they were very impressed. So i only heard good things about this country. Seems to be a nice place to live :)

Is nice at this time of year... summer yay!
Not sure i'll be here long tho, probably move back to Europe in the next few years.
Never been to Germany tho, what's it like?
