CURRENT MISSION

still working on that.... maybe we'll talk about it when you get here

ABOUT ME

I like to meet people and have some laughs and interesting conversations, but I also believe living in the spirit of Silence. I would like to meet like-minded people. I am also into mindfulness. I see life as something magic, full of magic moments. I am fascinated with mind itself, too. This may be my fascination nr. 1. That, and our Being Human.

You can also find me on facebook, if you want to get to know me better. Both on my own name, as well as Tortuguero's Book Exchange and Hang out spot The Hidey Hole...

PHILOSOPHY

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had quite a few couchsurfers by now, which is such a lot of fun that i wish i had some at least twice a week! We do our best to go out and do stuff with them that would fall into the tourcategory except we go by ourselves and have more fun, without rush, and finetuning our senses in nature. When other obligations don't permit, we still try to get to know our couchsurfers and at least cook together and hopefully make an open fire with them in my yard...

Interests

I used to say I was interested in starting a commune. I think I no longer am, but I am still in love with the idea of having a 'walk-thru commune', with coming and going couchsurfers.
I am still interested in starting a human potential movement, since I think we need to explore what else our mind's can do, but that seems to be more a thing for the future... The couchsurfing thing is slowly giving me more ideas,on how i want to live and 'work'...
I love to read, I love nature.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music wise I am into reggae right now...usually my crummy radio playing. Since having WiFi in the house, I watch a lot of stuff on internet, and a lot food for thought stuff, which I might like to watch together with you...
Books (and magazines).... YES! Haha! Running the book exchange where I work and also starting it up in my house! English books, above all, please!!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Life is magic to me... what can I say..

Teach, Learn, Share

Since I wrote my profile there has been slight changes in what i want to do with my life. I have gone more back to my love for nature, and wanting to share that with the people who come and hang with us for a while, and along the way I think both my son and I are picking up all kinds of things from them.
I do have a whole philosophy on mind, and awareness, but whatever there is I might want to share on that will come out in our doing things together, and in casual conversation. And only if one is interested.
