About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To see and know it all!

ABOUT ME

I am an art critic and a writer. I have lived in quite a few places, and traveled in quite some more; I love travelling, dancing and horses, all that is new and intriguing, exploring this and other worlds, and creating. There is definitely not enough time in this lifetime to do all that I want, but I intend to do as much as I can get away with, and live to the fullest!

PHILOSOPHY

The road is the only thing there is

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have been more a guest than a host as I travel quite a lot, but I love sharing and learning new things.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In Latin America and now Japan. I met the most amazing people and I was always surprised by how friendly, welcoming and trusting people are! It is definitely a life lesson for me!

I have also written Travel Diaries - Tales from Latin America (currently preparing for publication) and had an exhibition about it. My plan is to continue with Japan and China so here I come!

Interests

Dancing, traveling, art and horses! I am also doing artist residencies around the world. I find that a good starting point - for the world is out there, awaiting...

  • horses
  • arts
  • writing
  • dancing
  • traveling
  • rock climbing

Music, Movies, and Books

Everything I can dance to in terms of music; creative, dark and experimental in terms of movies and books - Beat Generation, Douglas Adams, Virginia Woolf and Leonora Carrlington are alltime favourites! Of course, anime and period dramas (what can I say!); then depends on the mood and the actors...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbing Villarica Volcano and seeing Perito Moreno and Gray Glacier in Patagonia (Argentina and Chile respectively).

Carretera Austral in Chilean Patagonia is definitely a place I would easily return time and again!

Teach, Learn, Share

Take a minute to look around you

What I Can Share with Hosts

Travel stories and all sorts of fictional and non-fictional story-telling, cooking and dancing attempts (I draw the line with singing...) and a spoonful of art, philosophy and culture-talk (or none at all). I can get easily excited which might be contagious!
