Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe we are all one race one people, bye traveling the world we see people living in different circumstances, we can learn from eachothers cultures, habits, arts, and so feel more connected with our human race and our planet, its OURS, so ets share the best we have and the time we have to live on it.

To make this world a better place i believe in giving the best of yourselve and help where needed, in return im not afraid to ask help myself too.
Do things in exchange is also a way to avoid the money system where we are in and its still alive, but soon it will turn and we have to get back to our values of giving in exchange. I reveive Helpx people in my house , sometimes coachsurfers, and i can teach yoga, meditation, mediation, massage, & natural live style living

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seeing all this contradictions of rich and poor, and also the beauty of the country was amazing for me and teached me to look trough new eyes.
