About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To start to truly enjoy each moment of my life and appreciate what I have

ABOUT ME

I guess my friends would describe me saying: "Itchy Feet; insatiable thirst for travelling and meeting new people; a hopeless optimist; crazy dancer;-); tends to be stubborn and reckless, however" The other question is if they, meaning my friends, are right...

PHILOSOPHY

Let me use my favourite quotations again:-)
"Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated" - Confucius
"A good traveler has no fixed plans and is not intent on arriving" - Lao-Tzu
"If at first you don't succeed - redifine success" - found in Johnnie Fox's Pub - Ireland;-)

Interests

Let me use a well-known quotation: "A rolling stone gathers no moss" :-)
As for free time, typical stuff, I guess: meeting friends, cycling, reading, good movies and recently, playing djembe:-)

  • dancing
  • movies
  • reading

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sunrises and sunsets, especially those watched form the top of a mountain; staring at the ocean from the edge of a cliff in Scotland; diving for the first time (Red Sea)and, finally, the birth of my son:-)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm not a formal yoga instructor but I have been doing yoga for many years and I willingly share what I know :-) I am always ready to give some tips when it comes to learning foreign languages. I am a good listener and I love sharing life stories. I usually travel with my husband who is from Peru and who loves cooking Peruvian food for our hosts :-)
