PHILOSOPHY
The greatest happiness comes from opening the heart, to help others. The only purpose in life is to grow, the last lesson is to learn to love and be loved unconditionally.
In all these years of traveling, actually, I have not met anyone whose greatest need is not love.
I value wisdom and happiness over intelligence or the need to be right.
I never make plans, I let life be, I flow.... and let life surprises me.
I love life and I have a lot of curiosity about the unknown.....
Everything is a mysterious...
LIFE IS TO ENJOY.
My purpose in life is to LOVE.
All that matter is love, how we have loved and been loved too.
Living through my heart.
Blessing everybody and every moment....
To be grateful for my experience.
Living in authentic way.
Do you know the prayer of Dag Hammarskoljd? He was Sec-General of the UN in the early 1960's I believe..
His prayer goes like this:
'for everything that has been, thanks,
and for everything that will be, yes'
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Sharing my journey with other travelers, friendly people welcome me into their houses, people .... I host people....the whole meaning is to share from the heart without expect anything in exchange.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
My experience with couchsurfing has always been very positive,. I have met amazing people. I can only say good things.
There are BEAUTIFUL people around all over the world!
Eyes perceive the beauty that your heart feels.
After seven years traveling exploring countries by sea and by land (I do not consider knowing a country doing a stopover at an airport) and meeting locals, sharing their lives and experiences with me.... all I can say is:
Be brave, walk alone, meet strangers, listen to their stories, but more importantly, listen to your own story.
We go through strange places looking for things that they explain what we see, not knowing that this explanations can only come from inside. But only we will know how what we're seeing really makes us feel, and this is our story.
Everything is about us.
Interests
Volunteer work, sailing, meditation, history, art, photography, craft markets, cuisine, alternative medicine, nutrition, naturopathy, how to live permaculture life, natural building (earth house, earthship..), travel and meet strangers, listen their stories, flow with life and let it be, connecting with people as we are all one. Simple life, outdoors, live the present moment and celebrate life every day :)
I am always seeking ways to evolve and expand. I feel consciousness is how we will bring change and healing to our troubled Earth.
My dream is to create an intentional community somewhere in the world.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I did a sailing trip in Catamaran around all the east coast(Coral sea) and NT of Australia (Wessell Island, Ellery Creek big hole....).
It was a huge adventure ... I felt like Robinson crusoe :)
When I started to be aware...was in Byron Bay in 2011...leaving in a beautiful community where I learnt a lot of about love. Love is all that is real. My life changed when I learned to love myself and then I was able to love everything around me. The answer to every question is LOVE.
When I traveled in New Zealand and worked in farms. Live in nature, made me appreciate more our dependence on Mother Earth.
In 2013 I did another sailing trip, South Pacific ocean, it was AMAZING! I met great people, locals of the islands, who shared their lives and experiences with me. I have been in remotes places where people still live without nothing material, only what the Mather Earth gives to them, is incredibile!!
Challenge in the middle of the ocean, storm, rough seas, waves of 4 meters, windy, we were flying instead sailing! the sail was hooked and we could not put down. Soooo scared. We had a difficult and dangerous situation, at the end everything worked out.
The key was trust in myself and keep calm all the time.
Calm seas do not make skillful sailors.
ANOTHER AMAZING THING I HAVE DONE
I was sailing in Solomon Island and something happened, so I realized I did not want to stay on boat anymore. After a night of meditation, in the sunrise I jumped and I swam until get to the shore.
I lived special moments, which could sense the arrival of something like a miracle. In that moment I felt that everything fit, flowing by itself, without having to intervene or make any kind of effort. The key was to accept the situation have faith and trust in myself.
I thought that everything was perfect, it was like it had to be, letting everything flow by itself, always with positive aptitude about the situation.
What began as a tragedy, at the end, it became the most beautiful and deep experience of my life so far. I felt pure and unconditional love from everybody and much more.... Something magic, impossible to explain... is beyond than our reality. ..
Nothing is truly learned until the experience is lived. Therefore, knowledge does not follow experience. Experience precedes knowledge.
Also VIPASSANA MEDITATION. It was a big challenge for me.
Teach, Learn, Share
I think we are in this life to LOVE, learn, teach, share and help each other.
We have so much abundance here on earth, If we work together and share the fruits without greed.............
Inside each of us there is an immense capacity for goodness, to give without seeking reward, to listen without judgment and love unconditionally.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can offer a quiet place to stay, food, information.... Whatever they need.
