About Me

I am very curious about people's ways of life, exploring societies and cultures is my passion. I am fascinated by diversity and alternative ways of life, especially if they have giving spirit.
I’ve camped among the nomadic Berber and Tuareg people in Sahara and stayed in ashrams and temples around India to learn from and understand the people there. I’ve wandered around in the peaks and valleys of Himalaya around Kashmir and Ladakh among Muslims, Hindus and Buddhists. I’ve been chasing waves and hum drumming melodies in the ocean with locals in Philippines, Guatemala, Mexico, California and Bangladesh.

I exercise daily, practice yoga and have run 4 half marathons. Walking off the path in forests and along the coast opens and eases me. Scuba diving, climbing, snowboarding and surfing thrills me. DJing melodies from all over the world and cooking sustainably gives me that extra energy.

Interests
