CURRENT MISSION

juntos podemos cambiar el mundo

ABOUT ME

I studied languages because I wanted to be able to communicate with as many people possible! This made me move from grey Belgum to sunny Spain where I have been living since 2004. I love nature and after 6 years in Barcelona City i needed to take some air, literally.. I moved to the Collserola area which is a very green mountain area just behind the city. I just love to wake up and listen to the birds singing! I'm crazy about traveling and apart from the trips in Europe I backpacked through Nepal and India for a couple of months. I also went backpacking through the South of Mozambique for a couple of weeks. I became a yoga teacher because I really believe yoga is a great way of life in the stressful western society .. I also love music and love to dance.
I feel that CouchSurfing is a really great way to explore the world and a good opportunity to share time with local people of the same mindset.

PHILOSOPHY

Respect for everybody. Be the change you want to see in the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I occasionally meet up with couchsurfing members who travel through Barcelona to give them advice about what to see in my city but unfortunately i am not able to host because my partner does not feel the same way as i do about Couchsurfing. As a guest I CS in Menorca for one night, which was a really nice experience!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I think the most amazing thing I saw were the billion shining stars and the milky way when I spent 2 nights in the Indian dessert close to the Pakistan border. That and the Bazaruto 'PARADISE' islands in Mozambique.

Teach, Learn, Share

I was suffering from knee and back pain for over 7 years. I truly believed i would be in a wheel chair by the time i was 40 orso. After walking on the path of massage therapy, yoga and meditation for many years, I can finally walk and dance without pain! I know it sounds like some silly tv ad but from my experience I can truly believe and say that if we really want we can heal ourselves from deep within
