ABOUT ME
Hello,
I´m a dutch girl,after living in Granada and Lisbon, I'm back in Holland.
I love different cultures and languages, but my heart belongs to ´el mundo latino´.
My passion is dancing, salsa/bachata/zouk/kizomba/argentine tango. Also like to read, being out in nature and having a good conversation.
I practice Reiki and Ayurvedic massage and give Reiki courses. I have my onw practice, www.lirium.nl
PHILOSOPHY
Originally I got it from a spanish song ´Burrito´ of the group ´Hierba buena´;
¨Si tu sabes lo que quieres alcanzar, no hay nada que te pueda parar.¨
Translation:
¨If you know what you want to do, there´s nothing that can stop you¨

I like a lot of music, although I really don´t like things as heavy metal or clasic.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Leaving my home, leaving my country, my family and friends to go study half a year in Granada, Spain, and finaly decide that for now I don´t want to go back. I stayed in Granada, getting a life here. Than I did the same thing again, when I went to Lisbon.
