About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My current mission is to start a journey around the world with and find a place that makes me want to stay. Discover other cultures, learn other languages, challenge my perspectives, my deepest thoughts, and emotions.

This was my current mission in 2002, when I joined couchsurfing. I travelled the world for 6 years and fell in Love with Gili Air and its people.

Current mission: Follow your dreams, they know the way ❤️🙏🏻👣💃🏻🌴⭐️

ABOUT ME

I'm a positive, happy, warm-hearted person. I believe the glass is always half-full and every moment should be filled with happiness. I get along with almost everyone and when I don't, I believe we can still have a good time. I love to help people. I've had different roommates from friend to grandmothers :o), so I have a good capacity to ajust and respect someones habbits and properties. I love to work and I always worked with one purpose = to travel. I want to fullfil my dream and travel travel travel. I'm responsible and trustworthy.

PHILOSOPHY

I think we should follow our dreams without loosing out of sight the fact to stay productive and independant. Every day I try to learn something. To keep evolving and keep going forward... Enrich ourselves and the people that surround us in everyway. Share our knowledge. And laugh all the time !! :o) It makes us feel ALIVE AND HAPPY.
