About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Experience and love! Move,travel,meet, manifest, live mindfully here and now... And eat :)

ABOUT ME

I was born as a very positive and calm creature. I live consciously and I am trying to share with people what I have...well except my toothbrush unless your are reaaaally in need ;)

PHILOSOPHY

My motto :"Happiness is real when shared."

I believe that all barriers between us can be overcome if we really want it- both physical and mental and that the source of pain and unhappiness origins from isolation from others and our true selves.

Mindfulness in every field is the best way to achieve the 'gold balance'- be able to exist and express without limiting or disabling others to do the same. I am developing my personal philosophy with every day and I have lots of energy, motivation and hope to do it.
I am trying not to expect anything from anyone. I feel truly happy and I appreciate when people try to be happy, express themselves and be themselves. That way they make me stronger in my own transformation.
I wish to do something new everyday, no matter if it's travel to China or new recipe for delicious cupcakes :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've been participating in different volunteering projects and travelling around so that now I can sit on my..chair..no not really! Still very greedy to move and explore! The next few months will be full of new challenges and people since I've just moved in to Germany! (Fourth country of longer stay. I count also Scotland-3.5 months!)
In the further future when I settle down, I'll travel around the world 'in situ' by hosting travelers and volunteers from all other the world (quite tiny nowadays) in my house with a big garden and barbeque :) Don't know when and where... But when it happens I will let you know.
But for now a couch in a single room must be enough.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Veni vidi vici. I saw a couch, I gave a couch, I conquered a couch ;)

So many good and crappy movies in this world! Although I truely love ´Microcosmos' as a masterpiece of nature documentary and drama.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

During winter with my boyfriend we made a spontaneous trip to Switzerland and we reached Santis almost running from upcoming night. We managed to get to the last cableway only because the staff waited for us 20 min! Hiking in the dusk was a wonderful experience and I will never forget the view of the mountains.

Teach, Learn, Share

I had some thoughts about how physical moving from place to place gives us a chance for personal revolution. Maybe travelling and spreading is something inherited from our ancestors. As well deep meditation and focus on every single second is a journey of changing, approving and feeling.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can offer good stories and tips about nature and travelling, a nice company to play board games or just drink a cup of tea!
