About Me

ABOUT ME

I was born in Bilbao from a basque mother and a father from Segovia(close to Madrid,Spain).
I grew up mainly in Madrid but also lived in other cities for shorter periods like Bilbao and Sevilla.
In my childhood I did professional swimming and also classical music:viola and singing.
I studied all scholarship till I finished High School and then I decided to take a sabatic year and go travel...but then I never went back home...The first 2 years I traveled through ecovillages and yoga centers as volunteer.I also did permaculture courses,soundtherapy and musictherapy studies...
Worked taking care of children and taking care of gardens..
For the last years I´ve been studying more music and working as musician in different places,specially mexico.Right now I have my own proyect with my boyfriend,also musician: www.facebook.com/sonjaleomusic But I also play in other people.

PHILOSOPHY

"Be the change you want to see in the World" -Mahatma Gandhi

Anything that comes into your life is your responsability...be responsible of your life and heal your patterns,thoughts,memories...
I want to live as respectful with all beings and nature as possible,but being flexible and flowing with life...
