Be an artist whose work of art is your life itself...✨️🧚‍♀️

Hello everyone! 🤗
I'm Helena, and I have lived a nomadic lifestyle since I finished my university. I travel a lot as a way to my personal development and growth... And because it was always my dream! So I usually spend spring or summer in Europe by working with horses (as a groomer and now also kinda physiotherapist). And the rest of the year around Latin America.❤️‍🔥 I usually volunteer there in different communities/centres because I like to learn about plants... Especially medicinal and master plants from the traditions of the indigenous people. But also because I love to live in the tropical climate by a seaside!

I like to meet cool people, different cultures and explore new places on our beautiful planet. I am a friendly and open-minded person who loves nature, ocean, animals, and adventures... But I also enjoy cities and the things they offer - like music, dancing or a beer.

I live a healthy lifestyle in peace... And I wish health and happiness for the entire Earth. I am therefore interested in ecology, permaculture, organic farming, self-sufficiency, etc.💚

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think that meeting people and share moments together is one of the best ways how to experience the beauty of life itselfs. I like to meet different people all around the world and make new friends. Sometimes I need a place where I can sleep.

Interests

To be complete, happy, and healthy, we have to keep our spirit ~ soul ~ body in balance.☮️

My interests and activities are, therefore, really various. I love movement - dancing, walking, hiking, running, riding horses, cycling, yoga, workout, fire show... I love singing, playing music instruments (piano, flute, guitar...) and going to concerts and music festivals. I also like handcraft and DIY and creating some jewelleries or decorations from natural materials. I always like to learn some new skills and knowledge - at this moment, it's mostly Spanish, Portuguese, and playing a guitar. I love to connect with the ocean and nature, to sleep outside under the stars... simply enjoy the present moment.✨️

I want to explore Latin America. And I don't mean to just go to the famous places as a tourist, but to really get to know the local culture and indigenous people, explore amazing places in nature and live there for a long time. I've always been interested in native American's traditions, shamanism, and medicinal plants. So I like to be right at the places where it all comes from to fully connect with this wisdom and force.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music depends on my mood... Indie, alternative styles, oldies hits, psychedelic rock, tribal music, psytrance, techno...😄

My most favourite movies are the ones unclear with a surprising end, like Shutter Island, Fight Club, Interstellar, etc.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I danced for 12 hours in a row on the winter solstice ecstatic dance ceremony to celebrate the longest night of the year.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm learning Spanish and Portuguese.

I can share my travel experiences - I've visited many countries in Europe and I've been travelling around Latin America alone for almost 2 years already.
