ABOUT ME

In Singapore most of my life - 7 months in Europe in 2015, the summer of 2016 in Sri Lanka where I walked in floodwaters to my first day at work, learnt how to read sinhala, and got to drive a tuktuk. In 2017 I fell head over heels in love with a dance called Brazilian zouk which transformed my life. Also began meditating and realising the power of living consciously. In 2018, I spent three months in Australia to volunteer on farms and learn about permaculture, and to my extreme surprise and pleasure discovered a great new passion for food, growing, and nature that led me with utter conviction to a new "career" path...

I'm a travel junkie, love learning languages, challenging personal boundaries, dancing (especially Brazilian zouk), being with people, solitude, reading, films, having frank discussions about anything, writing terrible poetry, swimming, and letting my imagination run wild.

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let live, and love with a warm heart.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

Love meeting people and getting a little peek into their souls, exchanging stories, listening and laughing together.

Interessen

I love sketching and writing and dancing! Climbing of any sort makes me insanely happy, and I adore water and the sea.

West Asia and the Middle East fascinate me, I went to Turkey 2 Easters back and it was everything I had imagined and more. Hate is becoming so prominent these days (because our brains are wired to remember emotion, and fear sells in the media) but I like to believe compassion, clear-headed thinking and a little bit of luck will keep it at bay. I'd like to become near-fluent in French in the next 2 years. For most of the last decade I was searching for that median where I can grow and be mad happy and self-fulfilled whilst pushing for greater equity and less needless suffering, and I think in sustainable food production that I have finally found the first inklings of this x
