About Me

Just a freedom loving girl, trying to live a life full of dreams, passion and inspiration from the outside world and peace, joy and love in my inside world. As long as I am surrounded with positive energy, I am Happy! Constantly learning and sharing is a motivation in my life. I sing for expression and release, I dance for exercise and creativity...

I try to make the world a better place.. one smile at a time.. one small deed at a time.. one sun salutation at a time :D

TRAVEL STORY

I left Brunei by thumb in 2012 and have been hitchhiking across 6 continents since then. And now after 100,000km of roads hitchhiked, 53 countries and 7 years later, I moved to Chiang Mai Thailand to focus on my handmade craft business.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Living is pretty amazing! Really living to the full.

Crossing the atlantic ocean with a 40 ft catamaran from Portugal to Africa to the Caribbeans for 30 days and then hitchhiked with another boat for 12 days across the Caribbean sea to Panama. The feeling of being out in the ocean surrounded by only nature.. is just indescribable.

Ohh and the people I have met are the wonders of my world!

Teach, Learn, Share

TEACH | Definitely! I can always teach you about my culture, some dance moves, yoga poses, living life as a nomadic yogi :p

LEARN | I'm a lifelong learner. I think there's always something new to learn. I've always loved fitting the pieces of the world together as one big puzzle the becomes clearer with each added piece.

SHARE | I'm happy to pass on what I have learned so far in life. Whatever it is.
