About Me

CURRENT MISSION
I am a energetic, vibrant person and mother of a cute little girl. After 2 years of surfing mainly the wave of motherhood I start to do things on my own again - giving her daddy more space and responsability and diving back into the dephts of creation...
One could describe me as a nature girl - ironically I spent the last 15years having my base in big cities like Frankfurt/Main, Paris & Berlin. So its time for a change...but obviously I just came back to live in a bigger City due to my love :)

ABOUT ME
I am a freelance performing artist - mainly working in outdoor site specific theatre. Though I am also teaching and specialized in dance in nature - teaching people to get back in touch with the nature and all that is to find out there...
you can get a closer glimpse of that on my HP www.karenremy.de

I am kind of a traveling person. All my live has been like this & my job keeps me traveling:
Born in Rueil-Malmaison (F), grew up in Denain (F), next to Cologne (D), Marburg (D). Then in Frankfurt/Main (D) living in a big community of 10 to 20 persons in a big theatre space for 3,5 years.
Then 1,5 years in Paris (F) & until May 2015 in Berlin & since december 2016 back in the community in Frankfurt.

PHILOSOPHY

Zu erkennen, dass man glücklich war ist leicht. Zu erkennen, dass man glücklich ist, ist Kunst.
***********
It's easy to recognize that you have been happy. But it's an art to recognize that you are happy.
************
C'est simple de se rendre compte d'avoir été heureux.
C'est un art de se rednre compte qu'on est heureux.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am recently hosting people I met before -though they are partly here too.
Soon I will have to leave my flat & will be traveling again.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I was traveling a lot and met really nice people, that let me use their couch - even before I knew about the CS possibility!
I have had some CS experiences. Mainly when I was going to workshops in other cities & found great people that hosted me.

Interests

Theatre, Dance, CI, Traveling, experience other cultures,
Languages, Cats, Horses,
Shiatsu Massage, chinese medicine, meditation, Taoism
Film, Musik, Photographie, Painting

I am not a party person - though I love to dance! So in Berlin I sometimes go to one of the 5 Contact Improvisation Jams
As with my job I am a lot on the road - I love to spend a quiet day in the sun on my balcony when I am home.
Or having a nice walk in the nature.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've been sitting on a cliff, watching sun dawn over the ocean and colonies of dolphins in it, while the horses of this backpackers place came -kind of- out of nowwhere back from their days free journey.....

Teach, Learn, Share

I teach classes of dance theatre, Contact Improvisation, Shiatsu, Meditation, Dance in Nature, Dance & Horses.

I am getting more and more into alternative healing methods - therefore I start another course in Zurich 2015. And I will need a place to stay every now & then ;)

I am happy to share my experiences, to talk, to cook, to dance, to meditate, to give shiatsu...
& I am open minded for other opinions!!!
