About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Living in a way that embodies and contributes to the world I want to live in.

ABOUT ME

Two years ago I gave away everything that didn't fit in my backpack and started to travel eastwards. I'm on a unlimited journey. The road became my home.

Today I live in a little oasis in the steppe of Andalucia. It's where I belong. The land gives me what I need and much more, and I try my best to let the plants grow the way they want.

One day I realized that my life is too perfect - my home, my job, my friends... I woke up and was afraid of loosing what I had. This day I decided to go.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For me it is not so much about what one does but how one does it. Thus peeling potatoes can be an intellectual challenge, walking a form of meditation, and talking a form of dancing. With every new person and every new moment of conversation one gets to experience a different way of communicating and engaging with the world. How will we share, exchange, combine?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I had an own catering based on wild herbs.

I think the most amazing things happen to me while I'm simply walking. I don't think or plan to much. But whatever I need just comes to me. In the morning I pack my tent, in the evening I pitch it again, in between I encounter the small wonders.

Teach, Learn, Share

Smiles, laughter, stories. Sharing the weird and the beautiful. A stranger's eye and ears.
I'm practicing a magic trick.
I know a lot about wild herbs - they constitute the biggest part of my diet. I'll be happy to share my knowlegde.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to cook healthy meals :)
I love to laugh, to move, to exchange experiences, to dance, to go to the market and try everything I had no possibility to taste before.
