Journey to the centre

ABOUT ME

I'm a kiwi at heart, easy-going and friendly. I like being outdoors, seeing raw nature and responding to it, whether that means jumping into freezing water, climbing out along a high cliff, rolling down a sand dune, or just sitting for hours absorbing it all.
If I'm not being challenged, I'm going backwards. I love traveling for the culture and language challenges, for the sharing and awareness of the diversity of people on this earth.
For me, expressing creative talents is essential to a balanced life. I like playing and listening to music, free dancing, and using this instrument we call the body to it's full capacity.

Music, Movies, and Books

Authors and teachers who I find inspiring : Daniel Quinn (Ishmael), J. & U.G. Krishnamurti, Paulo Coelho, Bertrand Russell, Kim Stanley Robinson (Mars trilogy, Years of Rice and Salt, ...)

Music depends entirely on situation company and mood. Enjoy anything with a good groove that gets me on my feet dancing.

In the realm of movies, international.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbing up and down Mt Meru (sister of Mt Kilimanjaro) in a day. Swimming with dolphins off the coast of Zanzibar and in a freezing lake at the top of a Corsican mountain range (no dolphins that time.)

Teach, Learn, Share

Hmmm teaching HOW to learn is important. If you'd like to practise english, learn or jam some music, I'll always make time for that.
I'd like to learn how to play unusual musical instruments, speak arabic and spanish..
