CURRENT MISSION

To maintain this beautiful feeling of freedom through travel for as long as possible

ABOUT ME

I find myself attracted to all the different people living in the world. I love learning about their lives, cultures, languages and particularities. I could spend hours watching people sitting around a fountain going about their daily lives. I have more compassion for them than is probably appropriate. When I see sadness in any face (sometimes even in a movie) I feel it too and I wish with all my heart that I could help them in some way. I hope to figure this out one day. But in the meantime I am starting with children and teaching them the only way I know how... The Waldorf/Rudolf Steiner philosophy.

I'm also a free spirit who likes to drink beer and dance.

PHILOSOPHY

To accept life as it comes, to live with no regrets, to help others, to be kind to the earth.

I find this difficult to answer but we can chat about it without the pressure of filling out hundreds of names.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbed to muller hut in Aoraki national park, New Zealand. A stunning place and one I would recommend.

Traveled to Norway the midnight sun and full moon rising.

Teach, Learn, Share

I teach many random things to children and am happy to share these with you. I have crocheting with me so maybe we can work on that if it interests you...
