Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

A friend could not host me in Paris
I had to find another way...
discovered CS...
love at first sight!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I used CS to go to Paris and ever since I have magic experiences. Every time it's an exchange of truths, of 'peer'guidance through life. No money involved. Basic connection. True deep soul to soul meet-ings. That's what CS makes possible.

The Dutch word for 'meet' is 'ont-moeten' which means literally 'un-must' (letting go of must/should).

Interests

Other cultures, music, dance, languages, books

I am fond of the African culture:"love life, make music, dance and laugh!" and indigenous cultures:
- the Native Americans (Healing, shamanism and herbal medicine)
- Aboriginals (Book: "Mutant message downunder"-by Marlo Morgan)
- Maori (movie: "The whale rider")
- Inuit and Saami
- ...

I am (still) intrigued by the Celtic culture (Scotland, Ireland, Bretagne, Wales...)

I love (world)music and (folk) dance festivals

I LOOVE philosophical conversations in the middle of the night with a tea at the camping fire and someone (preferably a man) singing and playing the guitar :D

To remember who I am, I...
- dance (Folkdance, African, baltic and balkan dance)
- cycle and walk
- do yoga or tai chi, though the discipline is yet to be developed :D
- meet people from everywhere
- massage and touch
- and dance... again!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Living in Ghana for 9 months
the magic fairy like energy in Scotland and Ireland
dancing African dance on an African beach in the full moon
Swimming naked at night in the Adriatic sea (which made me never want to wear underwear anymore :D)

Teach, Learn, Share

The power of women, the power of men, my body (being on this planet), Africa, India, nomadic life, learning to jump with closed eyes, learning to surrender, the synchronicity of things... magical!

I am happy and honoured to be born in this wonderful, challenging century with so much to be discovered, so many possibilities and so many wonderful people working together! There is so much potential (beyond the world you see on television)!

Let's share and learn...
