CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I love dancing and listening to music of all kinds, meeting new people and sharing ideas or just having fun times.
Currently living in Rio de Janeiro with my carioca husband, trying to make a living on our new project. Check out cariocafreeculture.com for cool stuff to do here in Rio as a visitor!
In out crazy world, I am searching for some balance in a world/reality that is based on boundaries and lables which keep us at an unbalance, with each other and within ourselves. I think that by breaking down to the roots of capitalism, sexism, classism... -ism -ism.. and patriarchy, we can start to find how the roles and lables rooted in our hierarchical institutions bind us and create a reality of unbalnace. *this part in my profile keeps changing... thanks to everyone who shares their viewpoints of the world, helping mine to grow and find better understanding of where we are, what we are.. blah blah blah

PHILOSOPHY

love yourself to love the world, and dance dance dance or whatever you love to do... this will make for the best you.
