About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Finding a balance between tranquility and activity.
Letting even more Nature, Music and Dance come into my life.
Building/finding a homebase I commit to.

After years of striving to make a difference in the world I am now learning to focus more on BEING. :)

ABOUT ME

I strive to keep my inner child alive. I love to play. I thrive in authentic human connection. I find joy being present in the moment. I enjoy challenging the boundaries of what we believe is possible. I try to celebrate failures. I like to travel, build bridges and overcome my preconceptions. I care. I strive to express my self more and more. I contain multitudes :)

PHILOSOPHY
"There is no way to here. Because you are already there."
Thank you, Alan Watts. I could write pages about my view of life... but this just sums it up SO beautifully.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think the idea behind Couchsurfing is simply beautiful. We live in an age of rapidly increasing interconnectedness and CS is one amazing manifestation of this!

I surfed quite a few couches while travelling e.g. in New Zealand and Romania... and I was always really grateful for the experience.
I hardly ever visit places anymore without meeting at least one person who lives there... CS makes this so much easier!

Music, Movies, and Books

TTTT-OO-OOO many books in my mind!

I have read a lot of fantasy and science fiction - it gives me joy and has immensely broadened my sense of reality and what is possible...
Among others, Margaret Atwood, Iain M. Banks and Dietmar Dath blew my mind.

And here's three non-SF books truly dear to my heart:
* Siddharta (Hermann Hesse)
* The More Beautiful World Our Hearts Know Is Possible (Charles Eisenstein)
* Recapture the Rapture (Jamie Wheal)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Swimming in ice cold mountain lakes in spring...

Sitting around a campfire with other wonderful people singing until the sun rises...

Watching trust and connection grow between people who had never encountered each other before... (I feel truly blessed this is part of my work).

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm an educator - if you're interested in education that is truly meaningful, we have something to talk about.

What I Can Share with Hosts

If you feel it might be of help to you, I can offer coaching and/or bodywork sessions to give you space to connect with yourself, your dreams, pains, questions... And I generally love to lend my ear and listen to what people really care about.

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, Cambodia, Croatia, France, Germany, Italy, Laos, New Zealand, Portugal, Romania, Spain, Thailand

Countries I’ve Lived In
