Creating a Wellbeing and Adventure Tour Company...Pet and house sitting, maybe...
Goals to broaden my views, feeding curiosity about life and languages even more (to the planet Earth and beyond). Various Art projects all the time so life has more colour and meaning. Writing books or something at least... And Loving living with my animals.

Looking to meet people from all walks of life from anywhere.
When I travel- it is with my dogs and two cats, so animal lovers preferred. I own my life to them, so they are precious. This applies to hosting too, currently open to it till September.
25+ years of experience in Cam therapies, Healing and Fytotherapy and I am happy to exhange and share while surfing myself.
Wellbeing, compassion and curiosity are my guiding lights& joy in this journey of life.

PHILOSOPHY

Do good to yourself and others as much as you can, as long as you can, to as many as you can.

Change the things I can, accept the things I cant and the Wisdom to recognize these...

Seek what sets your soul on fire.

Dance like no-one is watching you,
Love like you had not been ever hurt,
Sing like no-one listens you,
Live like heaven is on Earth.

and forgive yourself and others...be grateful every day...bring Light to the World

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCH-SURFING
I have done WWOOFing before and couchsurfed myself -loved it. The people I met, shared moments, cultures to experience.

I future years I hope to travel and do couchsurfing and pet/ housesitting in Europe.

Hosted many people years ago in this same house in Satakunta countryside area. So now doors are open again, even I am doing some renovations over the summer, many rooms are available. Many fond memories of discussions and dinners shared.

Now I am back in this house for awhile and while I am presently living here, I will host again. So please let me know if you like to meet- Namaste.
