Overview
About Me
Taking it one day at a time, i try to understand and accept what i'm made of and see what i can do with that to exist as fully as possible. Figuring out what's important to me is hard because there are just too many amazing things in this world i want to discover or continue discovering! that's probably one of the reasons it took me a while to invest myself fully in a path (i tend to forget that we can go anywhere except for everywhere). So i've gone from attempting a formal education to free lance massaging and am now on a more steady track working in the boating industry. All of those periods of my life have offered me so much and thinking back at them reminds me just how much more there is to experience. And i love it!
I love poeple (yet always misspell the word), i love being active both physically and mentally, i love always trying to grow, heck i even love loving.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I signed up on CS after going to Italy with a dear friend who has been on it for quite while. After seeing how well it works and meeting some really awesome couch surfers in Marseille (where i lived at the time) i couldn't understand why i hadn't signed up earlier! So here i am.
Interests
Writing, outdoor activities (swimming, hiking, boating...),magic tricks, learning anything from the difference between behavioural and transpersonal phychology to jump-roping. But most importantly and above all else: Blowing Bubbles.

music: Liszt, John Williams, Ella Fitzgerald, George Gershwin, Nina Simone, John Frusciente, Deluxe, i rarely dislike music when i think about it.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
It wasn't as much my doing rather than just saying yes to a series of beautiful opportunities that lead me to the most soulful town i've ever had the honour of discovering. after the most random encounters, my friend and i ended up spending a few days in this tiny Italian town in the mountains. Everything was hand made, from to town oven the villagers would still use to the dark flat stones used as roof tops. Every little tile, paving every little path seemed to be telling a story or a joke. And that's just the man made stuff, i won't even start with the snowy mountain tops that surrounded it, as if trying to keep the village a secret.
Teach, Learn, Share
Jack of all trades but master of none. I can teach/share the little bit i know about a random range of things (from énneagramme to two person rolly pollies), if i were to consider a "speciality" it would probably be constructive communication (with disciplines like NVC or NLP).
When it comes to learning, i'm always down!
