About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To be mindful in the moment.

ABOUT ME

I'm tall, big, sometimes graceful, sometimes clumsy. I don't like being in a hurry. I love to eat, cook, massage, dance, do yoga, sing, write, rap, play sports, to be in nature and travel.

PHILOSOPHY

I live my live in order to live. To see, learn, experience and think new things, to receive and give love. To fall and get up. To grow, to find security in this crazy world, to wonder in the midst of mystery, to be unsure and accepting.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far, I've only had 1 couchsurfer visit my house. A girl from new zealand who had been traveling the world for about two years, without any money, but people had been taking care of her, because of her good nature, and her willingness to share amazing stories.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like a lot of different movies and books: recent cool movies: "the yes men fix the world", "warm bodies", "kumare". Cool books: Naomi Klein "The Shock Doctrine", Robert Jordan "The Wheel of time". Favorite poet: Hafiz.
Music: 2pac, pearl jam, stevie wonder, nusrat fateh ali khan. I like almost all kinds of music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've traveled to the jungle of northern-thailand on an inter-faith peace journey, to witness the lifestyle of the karen hill people. Here I received many blessing and insights into what harmony with nature actually means and what kinds of pressures power puts on those that attempt to live a harmonious lifestyle from a marginal position.

Teach, Learn, Share

Thinks I can share, are the limited knowledge I have of philosophy, religion/spirituality, psychology, anthropology and the English language. (Fantasy) books. Basic yoga knowledge. Good food, massage.
