CURRENT MISSION

learning to be a good human, creating positive connections....

ABOUT ME

I love to meet and talk with people from cultures different to my own,to share stories and to learn different ways to see life. I love outdoor adventures- hiking, climbing, biking, swimming etc and sports... I try to care for our planet through growing trees and organic gardening,recycling etc, as well as supporting others in their conservation projects. I love many kinds of music, and to dance. I make documentary films.

PHILOSOPHY

we are all human, living in the same amazing universe, respect and compassion for all beings will create peace, fighting won't!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

lived in a Mayan community in Guatemala, being a part of family life, and being a part of a project with locals to rescue their environment and cultural values.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share glimpses of others cultures through my stories and movies, hopefully reinforcing the idea that although there are many cultures and people in the world, we each can offer something to others. I hope to learn more about life in other places, to understand more, and become a better human through these experiences.
