Overview
About Me
Ever since I was a little girl I dreamed of travelling around the world as a missionary, to help people in need especially children is what life is all about.
Later on, I worked with teenagers with special needs and it was then when I knew that these amazing and unique people who touched me so deeply were the people I´d be working for.
A year later I myself gave birth to Madeleine who had all possible impediments one can think of and ever since the moment she looked into my eyes I knew that I would do all I could to comfort and love her together with my children and my husband.
After more than 30 years working with the Communication system that my late daughter Madeleine and I created, I´m almost done and ready to start the Mission I was born to fulfil.
I´ll be travelling all around teh world sharing my tiny angel´s dream of helping her peers in need.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Ever since I became a member 10 years ago or more I thought that this amazing idea of meeting people from all around the world in your own home was just a dream, by that time I had neither the time nor the money to travel so, of course, I just enjoyed meeting CS members every time they turned to me:
But unfortunately when my turn came and thanks to my nieces in the USA who is married to an aeroplane mechanic, they kindly shared to standby ticket not once but twice.
As CS member I thought that it would be as easy as it had been for the CS members who came to my place as all of them kept on talking about the amazing time they would have visiting countries and meeting with fantastic CS members all around the planet.
My positive thinking was about to change as soon as there was no one who answered any of my messages with the exception of one member student in Congo who was very kind and I guess she was an American. But after listening to a friend´s stories about the violence against women and as I was travelling alone I just didn´t dare.
Colombia and the USA which were the countries I did visit were out of rich through CS.
Luckily I´d family in both countries and my trip was a success regardless of the disappointment with the CS members who I contacted and who didn´t even bother to answer back.
Right now I´m on my way t Gdansk and I sure hope to hear from a kind CS member who would like to meet an Innovator with a Humanitarian background through Social Art.
Interests
I've spent most of my almost 66 years of long, short, pleasant, tough, scary and so forth life experiences figuring out to make life easier for all the less fortunate and I finally found i:
Since 1984 after my third daughter's arrival to this chaotic world, I received not the most precious gift from heaven who was this little angel disguised as a little girl with all possible "ABILITIES". due to Chromosome aberration and Cerebral Palsy.
In order to compensate all these endless and impossible impediments in the eyes of all the Specialist and pessimist doctors, the only people who really believed in her and adored her with or without her difficulties.
We all did what it was best for her to be embraced as she was and struggle to keep her against the Swedish system and all their inhuman ways to solve our family situation.
Through MadeleineWe learned new ways to communicate with her, to carry her around, to feed her, and so forth.
She gave us the most valuable 9 years of our life and ever since the day she left us with a broken heart but full of compassion for every little soul who visits us in such a "confusing" physical disguised "full of painful but extraordinary and profound experiences that help us to change the world in such a positive way as our beloved Madeleine came to do.
- to serve humanity the best way i can.
Music, Movies, and Books
When it comes to books my favourite writers are Dostoevsky and Victor Hugo:
As I´m dyslexic nowadays I listen to all between heaven and earth through youtube while working with the programming of the Communication System
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Together with Madeleine we created a Communication System that has taken me more than 3 decades to develop but thanks to the Universe it´ll be ready by this year and I´m very thankful to my late daughter for this gift to her peers in disappear due to their dis"ABILITIES" who would be a part of this world as Madeleine was.
Teach, Learn, Share
After I´m an inventor always looking for the best and quickest way to help others and myself, I´ve great tips about all possible subjects.
Exchanging the KNOWHOW is the best we can offer to each other, to find the common denominator among our different cultures is a way to understand ourselves and the world around us.
What I Can Share with Hosts
All possible tips about cooking, for instance, watch movies, talk about our favourite writers, I love salsa, flamenco, ballet, river dance and so forth but I just can dance salsa as I come from Colombia,
My home is not really a normal so call HOME...It´s more like an Art Gallery full up of recycling Abstract Art and i love to share all the ideas I keep on developing for the best of our polluted earth!
