If all the personalities, interests, identities are costumes, I must say that my closet is huge yet further expansion plans are on the way. If not, I am a simple girl with simple needs.

Search - either be it a destination for the next trip, frames for my journal or travel blog, answers to subquestions in my greater PhD question, truth - how the world seems when I am fully open to experience it.

Coffee - I love being a coffee connoisseur, finding new beans and recipes for brewing them. Voltaire called coffee a cup of sunchine and joy. I could not agree less.

Dance - dancing argentine tango for 9 years now created killer memories of unforgettable dances, introduced a new way of meditation and connection, proved that sometimes what I need is a good hug, which to find I am willing to travel and dance 3 days stopping only to sleep and eat.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on Couchsurfing to meet fellow travelers. Life is a travel and traveling for me is a mindset rather than an activity.

I have been on Couchsurfing for quite a long time now on and off. When said Couchsurfing I am reminded of conversations that do not belong to space and time, raw and honest, most of the time triggering some stones to move away opening the mind and heart, setting free. We are more than our sum when we share, and I love not just saying it but feeling it. I suppose that is what I am after :)

Interests

I am into writing and photography these days and would like to focus more on them. Be more conscious about what is happening around me, be sensitive to subtle voice of my intuition to pick up the clues on what to do next and what to write about.

The latest idea is creating a bucket list of 100 items and writing a story as I make them real one by one. One of the items in that list is travelling to South America which I will do this July! I have met few Colombians. Every one of them had so much love to their country that it created intense need to see this land for myself. I also want to find out the roots of love, towards land, nation, group and an individual through the lenses of local people.

It could be nothing or many things. Let the energies decide?

What I Can Share with Hosts

My time and attention. I am open to trying new things as well as helping out in the household. I have had my fair share of cooking practical foods and would be glad to be an apprentice for elaborate cooking :)
