About Me

I just love to learn and share ..

I would love to share so much..

about nutrition .. I was a health coach and naturopath with specialization in nutrition in a few clinics around the world .. it's my true passion..

* can tell and teach you all about detoxing (juicing being my favorite one ..) and nutrition and proper food combining and life motivation :p

* can tell and teach you about Non-Ordinary States of Consciousness (NOSC) - and paths - from DMT/Ayahuasca (from Amazon rain-forest) to Holotropic Breathwork

* meditations from Vipassana to sky is the limit ..

* can tell and teach you about software and technology from bitcoin to bittorrent from darknet to investing ..

I want to understand this beautiful world, cultures, people... instead of hearing or seeing about it... I want to experience it... I want to meet interesting people, to show them my culture and for them to show their culture...

Burning Man and alike transformational events...

DMT / Ayahuasca - after birth and death the third most powerful experiences a human can have - one of the most important things I have done in my life...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayahuasca This will change your life...

CURE FROM MOST TERMINAL DISEASES
film: Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead - www.fatsickandnearlydead.com
film: The Gerson Miracle
film: The Beautiful Truth
film: Dying To Have Known

film: The Secret // The Living Matrix // What the #$*! Do We (K)now!?

I LOVE nature - if you have not experience the amazing adventure from hiking/trekking/camping ... and you want to - you could couchsurf my tent - I have all the equipment that we may need for 2x people ... and I would love to introduce you to this magnificent activity...

I enjoy making time-lapses - perhaps we can make one together - and I'll show/teach you all about it...

About me:
I love this life and every moment of it! I think this life just very well might be heaven... we can do anything that we set our minds to... (and I smile a lot)

While being very optimistic and having a positive outlook on everything, I do have a very strong grasp on reality and the world around us ... with all the positives and negatives.

I am in constant search and exploration - seeing, trying and inventing new things and concepts...

PHILOSOPHY

* enjoy life
* do onto others as you would have them do onto you
* be honest with your self and others - else you are trying to be something you are not...
