I love blue sky, dancing and learning. I am very curious, enthousiastic, passionate and energetic.
I moved back to my hometown Vitoria-Gasteiz after living 15 years away, one year in Syria, two in Barcelona and twelve in Amsterdam!

My mother used to say I have a flower in my ass (tienes una flor en el culo), so I am pretty sure I will figure out how to combine all my passions and continue exploring life to its fullest.

Some days a week I work in a Mental Health clinic and I am a therapist to treat trauma and chronic personality issues. I do not like diagnoses and see humans as complex and complete beings and not as a bunch of labels.

Very often you can find me taking many dance lessons in a big dance school built in a Church!

And I am also creating an online school for movement, emotional exploration and dance called
I MOVE I AM : https://imoveiam.org/

I love to meet new people from many different backgrounds and travelling on my own.
I started Couchsurfing when I was 16 years old and I even got married to my couchsurfer in Syria (already divorced).

I love adventure and excitement, although I do have a stable and pragmatic mind too.
I have been told I can be very direct and I have a very strong determination and clear goals.
At the same time I can be soft and sweet and helpful :)

You can check my Instagram, although lately I am not that active...

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

To laugh, learn, discuss, listen and be amazed.

I started Couchsurfing long time ago!!!!!!
In 2006 when I was only 16 years old and I had many more references but I gave old profile to my exhusband, so you can read more references about me here: https://www.couchsurfing.com/people/abadialtanani/references

I can MAYBEEEEE host someone in Amsterdam, ONLY if you write a personal request (meaning you have read my profile and is not a copy paste message), and if we have something in common. Use the word "TURQUOISE" in your message for me to know you read it :)
