Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Interests

life is busy here, we love to cook new things, we are avid users of cookbooks of all kinds, from "Rebar" to "Mastering the Art of French Cooking", to Italian Specialities. We create and craft, with wood, wool and silk.
we travel and teach the kids how to swim, ski, ride and bicycle!
a little yoga, tango, freediving, walks, drinking good cortados, reading all the international newspapers online.
we try to eat organically, when we can afford it. we use cloth diapers. we recycle.we take jasmin up to ride Lotus, the pony. we make applesauce, homemade roast beef and Lebanese Hummus and drink all kinds of tea. our favourite- jasmin pearls.

i am raising the kids in the waldorf approach, natural living, the importance of childhood and rituals and wonder. Homeschooling and all the crafts, magic, music and waldorf outlook I can cram into one day, all mixed in with a little Zen-Buddhism.
