I live for the unity of all things - the connectedness that inspires and uplifts us all. I try to express this in my music, and to build this in the world through community development and gentle politics. I am very sensitive to the spiritual world, and this is the best and worst thing about me. It makes me able to be compassionate and a good guide, and perhaps sometimes wise, and it also makes me unable to join and enjoy much of the mundane pleasures that i see around me - if it does not have a deep spiritual bent then it is not for me. I love to meet people, whether or not they are into the same things as me - if they are interested in meeting and learning about each other there is a great joy that comes in the connection and understanding as we open our hearts to each other.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I am applying for a job in Covilha, Portugal that starts at the end of September, and if i get the job i am hoping to have some local friends to show me around and help me settle into the new place. I don't have any portuguese, but i am excited to learn about the language and the culture.

Centres d'intérêt

I love playing music - violin and guitar, and exploring the spiritual traditions of the world - qabalah to yoga to meditation to esoteric christianity to taichi. We as a family love to play games and celebrate and sing songs, and to have fun together.
