CURRENT MISSION

"A human being is a part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty" ~Albert Einstein

I want to help other human beings who need help because they want to visit my country. By sharing what I have I hope I can repay all the kindness I have recieve while I've been traveling. I know what it feels like to be on the road and looking for somewhere to stay. Please keep on reading my profile...

May all beings be happy 🙏

ABOUT ME

"I am a citizen of the planet
My president is 'Chenrezig'
My frontier is on an airplane
My prisons: homes for rehabilitating"
~Alanis Morissette

At first glance I might seem cold, quite and shy. This is my appearance before I start getting to know someone. Afterwards, I'm still a quite person but very warm and open to anything... and also:
very honest, friendly
someone you can trust
respectful
open-minded
recently someone defined me as a "free spirit", I never thought of me that way, but I definitely agree

PHILOSOPHY

The Dalai Lama, when asked what surprised him most about humanity, he said:

"Man.
Because he sacrifices his health in order to make money.
Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health.
And then he is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present;
the result being that he does not live in the present or the future;
he lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies having never really lived."

My philosophy of life is based on the Dalai Lama's words. I'm trying in my life to do all the opposite of what he said. I don't care much about money (I try to earn money just enough to leave my life and do the things I like). I try to live the present in a healthy way and enjoy it the most, not worrying much about the future. For me life is a journey where I want to be a better person at the end of this journey than at the begging.

I live for things that give me emotions:

-Travelling: far, very faraway... travelling opens up my mind, I love meeting new cultures and new things
