About Me

CURRENT MISSION
In case I am not responding, which sometimes happens, since I am quite often busy working, you can contact my boyfriend, https://www.couchsurfing.com/people/skywookiee, who might be quicker in responding than I am :)

ABOUT ME
Nature is what is most important in my life! I love being outdoors, finding spots to read a good book at, collecting interesting wooden sculptures, knowing and learning about trees and herbs, hiking, being a plant ecologist.
I am a tea drinker, vegetarian, liquorice addict, attracted by the north and nature, sometimes a spiritual seeker and sometimes an analytical researcher, open minded, happy, laughing...

PHILOSOPHY
Trying to embrace the NOW even though I get distracted a lot by trying to make all kind of plans concerning my future :)
We can learn a lot from children!
