Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

hosted my brothers couchsurfers from Mexico, all camping in my living room, because I don't have spare beds. Was not subscribed at CS at that time, but due to the good experience I decided to sign up aswell.

Interests

too much of everything which in the ends makes me do nothing of everything :-)
dancing tango on Bregovic music, mixing languages, riding my bike, getting lost, finding my way again, dancing underwater, watching animation movies...
want to see the little 'efimeras' in real life! Recently into freediving or at least the magic of it...

music: almost all (of which the 'beat speed' does not exceed heartbeat however...)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Jungle, desert, mountains, seas...wild nature in general makes me speechless
The far north of Norway...watching the whale slowly emmerge from the water...
Being close to my little nephew during the endless hospitalisations and watching the kids will to live...

Teach, Learn, Share

I guess dancing? from classical, contemporary, flamenco, tango, Bharatanatyam, salsa, merengue, bachata, samba, forro, african, oriental, tarantella, pizzica, tammuriata, palestinian debke...to slightly transforming normal daily movements towards something I call dance aswell...I love movement to express impressions.
"age update": due to kneeproblems had to drastically reduce my dance activities so had to look for other expressive forms, which I found a little through singing. I now am part of a polyphonic singing group (http://www.patshiva-cie.com/) in which I find a way to express passion and life.
