CURRENT MISSION
I'm an English teacher, so my heart is in this. This is my new life, my new future, to help the people in Spain learn good English so they have a better chance for a job, for the future, also in other countries.

ABOUT ME
I'm a 54 but young at heart. I am into growing my own food. I am a great cook, easy going, open minded, talkative, and a good sense of humor.

PHILOSOPHY
Stop fighting senseless wars. All gods are one god : Unison. Do NOT bully ! We are not humans having a spiritual experience, but we are spiritual beings having a human experience. I am not religious but spiritual. I do believe in a Higher Being, what ever you may call it, and am respectful towards all walks of life as long as they respect me in my own space and beliefs.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE ON COUCHSURFING

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've hosted some real awesome guests at my place from several countries, and have been a guest in some places as well. It's awesome to meet new people and get to know about them and their culture.

Interests

I love animals, all sorts really. I like to better myself, to become a better person every day. I love to garden, I like visiting local parks, being out in nature, and in other countries I like to learn about the culture, about the customs, the food, the special things.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have seen Israël 25 years ago just before the Ayatollah started to throw bombs around. I have seen things and places there that no man can go to anymore. It was such a special experience. Amazing.

I'm going to do something amazing in August 2015 : emigrate to Spain, Barcelona, as an English teacher and work and live in Spain !

Teach, Learn, Share

Besides being an English teacher, I' m an holistic therapist in the broadest sense of the word. I am into international folkdancing since I was 10, only not active anymore now. I am also Reiki Master, and can teach about spirituality, healing, massages, readings and healings, and a lot more.
I like to hear you talk as well !! I like to learn from you where you come from, what is special about where you live, what your view on life in general is, what your customs are, what kind of good foods you have there : swap recepies ! I don't smoke or drink.
I hope to meet many people from all around the globe !!
