Our next stop will be an eight-day vipassana retreat in Wapserveen, Holland, from Aug 23 to 30 followed by weekend metta retreats in two other Dutch towns, Groningen and Nijmegan, another ten-day vipassana retreat at Passaddhi in Ireland, and more retreats in Czech Republic (Prague and Plana) and Belgium before we return to Inward Path, Penang, on Nov 16.
