Imagine that you have a day just for yourself. Where do you feel most drawn to go?

Select an answer:

To an unknown place without a plan – just let yourself be carried away. A home where I will finally tidy up and create order. For people with whom you can laugh and share anything. Into nature – preferably somewhere with water and silence. Where someone needs me and I can be useful.

Summer will offer you an unexpected day without obligations. What will you do first?

Select an answer:

I open the window and breathe in the world – whatever happens, happens. I will plan my day down to the last detail to make the most of it. I'm calling a friend – maybe we'll come up with something spontaneous. I will sit down with a book and lose myself in a foreign world. I will finally start something that I have been putting off for a long time.

While swimming in the lake, you suddenly feel an uncomfortable cold. How do you react?

Select an answer:

I will chuckle – that's what it's all about, feeling alive! I'm getting out immediately – the body needs to be protected, not tortured. I don't mind it, but I'm paying attention. I'll tell myself that it's a sign – and I'll start thinking. My smile freezes - the cold reminded me of something unexpected.

You receive a postcard from someone you haven't heard from in a long time. How do you feel?

Select an answer:

Surprise – do people still send postcards? Gratitude - small gestures always get to me. Curiosity – what led him to write it right now? A smile – and the memories that emerge. Mild tension – maybe something is needed?

In the summer, do you notice more silence or sounds?

Select an answer:

Sounds – birds, laughter, wind, that's my soundtrack. Silence – when I find it, I feel peace. It matters where I am – in some places I miss one thing, in others another. I don't pay attention – I'm mostly in my head. Sounds often disturb me, I prefer to avoid them.

On the street, you see a child who is happy about a simple puddle. What do you think?

Select an answer:

I was like that too. Where did it disappear? The world is beautiful when we can find joy in the little things. I will look around to see if someone is going to hurt him – he has to be careful. A smile will stay with me all day – it’s contagious. I envy him that freedom – I would be ashamed.

Someone offers you a summer trip without a program. What will you do?

Select an answer:

I'm in right away – the adventure calls! I need at least a rough plan – otherwise, I can't switch off. It matters who proposed it – a person is more than a goal. I refuse – chaos exhausts me. I will join, but I will secretly prepare a backup.

Someone is crying on the bench by the lake. How will you react?

Select an answer:

I'll sit quietly next to him/her, maybe he/she will speak. I will pass by, but it will stay in my head all day. I will ask if everything is alright. I will stay in the background – everyone has their reason. The crying will disturb me, I will quickly leave.

You get the desire to change something. What does that usually mean?

Select an answer:

Hairstyle, tattoo, something on yourself. Set different priorities, values. Start a new project or learn something new. Get rid of something that burdens me. Change the environment or the people around you.

Summer night, you can't sleep. What are you doing?

Select an answer:

I watch the stars and I think. I am writing down my thoughts – inspiration comes at night. I will play music or a movie. I will make myself some tea and try to find peace. In my mind, I am planning what I need to accomplish tomorrow.
