CURRENT MISSION

Be myself so I can free myself

ABOUT ME

I strive to keep an open, curious mind and make the best out of this constant stream of possibilities that's life. To seek inspiration and create, to experience a flow with people and places, to learn and grow on a daily basis. Creating comics is my main way of self-expression at the moment, I work with it professionally, along with making illustrations and children's books. It's one dream come true, but there's a few of them left for sure!

Algo increíble que he hecho

Seeing my daughter enter this world. A boat trip on Ganges at sunrise in Varanasi. Sleeping underneath the stars by the mediterranian. My books getting published and appreciated. All the world's nations uniting at a historic Bahá'í ceremony in Haifa, Israel. A bit more than one I guess, sorry ;)

Enseña, aprende, comparte

Some things I'm happy to teach you: playing guitar, drawing comics, drama excercises, tantra, cooking some finnish national dishes ...

Some things I'd love to learn some more: gardening, juggling, drumming, throat-singing, folk dances, new ways to meditate, massage ... unexpected ways to enjoy life.
