About Me

I grew up in a village, close to nature, so I like to say that I am a mix of sun, summer rain, wind and wild flowers. Ambitious, independent, full of energy, enthusiastic but also calm, natural and peaceful.

For me, travel is a wonderful opportunity to open up, to connect with life and people, to let go and just flow, to go beyond the beaten track and discover new things about yourself and the world. In the end, your vision expands and you become a better human being. This is my philosophy and my experience.

I lived for one year in Paris, I have spent about one year travelling in India.

I am learning Indian classical dance. I wrote a book on India. I study and practice yoga. I promote India through cultural events.

So... yes, I guess right now India is full time part of my life.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

1) When my mind said "you can't do it because of this and this", I said "yes, I can". Most of the limitations we see are not real, they are created by our fears and restricted vision.
2) Learning dance from youtube
3) Receiving so much love from a girl living on the streets
4) Spending 5 months in an ashram

Teach, Learn, Share

Besides subjects related to India, I enjoy learning about people and seeing life through their eyes.
