Overview
About Me
I enjoy calm, relaxed days with a cup of tea and inspiring company, as well as exploring and learning new things. I get soul-searchy very quickly, I try not to put judgement into my thoughts and words, I always try to to be self-reflective, be humble, keep a conscious mind and treat anything and anyone with kindness.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I like to experience the true nature of a place i am visiting. I think through hanging out with locals, you can get a more honest and pure perspective on a foreign country. I believe CS can be an awesome way of making great encounters and beautiful experiences. I love the idea of having someone to show you around in an unknown place, taking care of each other and sharing love and good times. I want to provide that to travellers, as well as being fortunate enough to receive it myself :)
... and in the end
the love you take
is equal to the love you make :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
travelling australian soil for two years, living in campervans, sleeping in dried out riverbeds, forests, romantic city parks and on fantastic seashores, as well as finding shelter in amazingly friendly strangers homes, experiencing how beautiful and sweet people can be and how precious it is, to have someone who's got your back, whether you need it or not.
also taking life lessons about trust, fear, attachment, letting go and surrender, taught by the fascinating country of India.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach you some guitar or ukulele chords, as well as very basic sitar skills. i can also teach you how to flute some tunes on your bare hands.
If you are into sketchy fortune telling, i am happy to very vaguely read your coffee grounds :) and if you want to make me really happy, you can let me teach you how to play Go.
