Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Traveling since 2009 through Europe and India as a "monk / yogi"
ABOUT ME
((( See my pictures, they talk a lot. )))
Born to a family of Yogis, I have practiced this life-style my entire life, my parents had chosen my name in honor of Sri Nityananda (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nityananda).
We moved to Costa Rica when I was 9 and I lived there until 2009, since then I have been travelling in Europe, Middle East and South Asia (India).
I have a passion for music and arts, and I enjoy watching films with friends, doing yoga and simply having a good time, learning and sharing.
PHILOSOPHY
My philosophy of life is that we as humans grow by sharing, we become more by opening to life and others hold pieces of this puzzle that can be added and enhance our experiences. Love is the ultimate medicine, and joy is the key for all.
"If you want to build a ship, don't drum up people together to collect wood and don't assign them tasks and work, but rather teach them to long for the endless immensity of the sea."
~Antoine de Saint-Exupery
"The man who doesn't read good books has no advantage over the man who can't read them."
~Mark Twain

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I have seen how people live in small villages in the jungles of West Bengal, this experience changed my life, it showed me that we as humans only need love and water, everything else is a luxury....
"...the people of that land used to walk in great lengths, always in search of greener pastures and open valleys, they understood the behavior of some natural phenomena like storms, they also mastered the art of working the earth and separating its fruits, but once they found a place that simply qualified as safe from some common threats and with some specific natural distribution, they then dug a well in search of water [...] their survival depended on their ability to find it, no matter how deep it was, because water—like love—is what gives us life." [Excerpt from Divine Union]
Teach, Learn, Share
I have knowledge about Tarot, Astrology, Crystals, Chakras, Tantra, Music (guitar, harmonium, drums), computers and software at an intermediate level, yoga, massage, reiki.
I am interested in deepen the previous and also in Ayurveda, baking, philosophy, history, arts, life...
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can share some very special recipes and tips for cooking. But most important of everything is that I have a large collection of interesting information about various subjects, from other planets to music, from history and philosophy to informatics.
