Informazioni generali
Chi sono
CURRENT MISSION
To share my gifts from the universe; songs and music, cooking and positive vibrations. To connect with my human family.
ABOUT ME
I live in the wonderful city of Sheffield, UK, surrounded by hills and rivers.
I've been self-employed for over 8 years and have had a range of different jobs that keep my soul satisfied and my rent paid, including childminding, teaching English to asylum seekers and refugees, supporting differently-abled people, leading percussion workshops and working in cafes.
My business seems to be to become a part of people's families; to offer my support in exchange for bits of paper and metal and lots of love.
I am also a musician/poet, having written songs/poems from an early age. I have played for many years but only started to share my music a few years ago. I am also a member of The Sheffield Samba Band, a Brazilian-style drumming/percussion group.
I choose to have a vegan diet for my own, personal reasons. I believe that we all have a choice about our diet and because I feel so happy with my own choice, I do not pass judgement on what choices other people make about their diet.
PHILOSOPHY
My god is a goddess, my goddess is a tree. My goddess is in you, my god is in me.

Musica, film e libri
I'm not very good at remembering names of music/musicians, movies or books but I love music made from love, movies that make me cry at the bitter-sweet beauty of life and books that make me hug them when I've finished the last page.
Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto
I'm here. I'm happy.
Insegna, impara, condividi
I love sharing my knowledge of the English language and all its idiosyncrasies.
I also love sharing music not just by performing but also by hosting interactive, community jamming sessions. I can play some instruments to quite a good level; piano, ukelele, djembe but don't have much theoretical knowledge.
I've been vegan for over 8 years now so have quite a few recipes up my sleeve!
