CURRENT MISSION

to remember that I don't need a mission or a plan...and just enjoy each minute

ABOUT ME

I have been told that I have a great sense of humor,but don't expect me to be funny all the time... I am very honest, thoughtful, creative and lighthearted...but I think way too much. I am now living part time in Amsterdam and part time in Singapore, liking the polor opposite styles of living in each place and can't and don't want to decide on just one place :-)

PHILOSOPHY

Not knowing is far more interesting than knowing...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have participated in the past by allowing others to stay at my place (from a different site) because so many people have helped me out while I was travelling! Also, when I can't, I love to go out and give a little tour or just have a drink or cup of coffee. Just starting to use this again...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Just a few. One completely changed my life and my view of the world and people. Then, because of that experience, I have hosted guests (always good experiences) I look forward to hosting more people, or at least meeting new people who are like-minded.

I am travelling now and will be home soon.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

learning that tandem sky diving was kinda boring

swimming with whale sharks in mozambique, however was very amazing

learning just how LOUD silence can be!

Teach, Learn, Share

I have taught ceramics and pottery and have been practicing theravada (Vipassana) meditation for about 15 years / including 2 months of silence and many other shorter retreats which hugely have impacted my thoughts and my decisions, and lifestyle choices ;-)I have worked as a therapist with dual diagnosis teens and find helping people to be a necessity in my life.
