"I feel that there is nothing more truly artistic than to love people"
- Vincent Van Gogh

CURRENT MISSION

To help create peace

ABOUT ME

Open heart. Lots of wonderful people, animals, music and art around help to keep it that way.

PHILOSOPHY

Following the vector pointing where heart feels good. Living the experience, letting judgement take a break as much as I can.
Staying content by seeing much beauty around. Solving and helping others solve problems with help of the community, communion, art, kindness, appreciation, gratitude.

As I contemplate on the sharpest right turn we are entering in the U.S. and in many places in the world, I find myself utterly perplexed. Some of the outcomes of deep conversations with people outside the immediate circle are elements of a newly informed vision. More cohesive and grounded. I am thankful to Couchsurfing for being a wonderful vehicle for that.

All of my experiences of hosting or surfing have been nothing short of amazing. What a way to break through the isolation!

Algo increíble que he hecho

I went up a peak in Rocky Mountains and experienced all seasons in one day. Slept under the sky in Montana and saw amazing Aurora Borealis. Made entrancing music with people I had never met before. Amazing things! Life is full of them, really. Let's experience and share them in person soon!
