About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To help make Planet Earth more sustainable, be kind, help and inspire peopke by sharing insights and experiences, rescue, sterilize and rehome as many abandoned street animals as I can. So far its 60 cats and dogs. Not many but im not an official refuge, just one person trying to do too many things!

ABOUT ME

I am an author and a writer focusing on ecology and solutions to the environmental crisis, my latest book is called ´´The Silent Ecocide, the environmental crisis is a crisis of human consciousness´´- . I do what I can to present solutions to the global environmental issues, collaborating with indigenous people on projects, writing articles, raising awareness through writing, art, podcasting etc.

Siento que la crisis ambiental es una crisis de la conciencia humana después de trabajar 20 años como un biólogo ambiental. Hago lo que puedo para crear conciencia sobre las cuestiones de la selva amazónica, en colaboración con los pueblos indígenas sobre projectos, escribir artículos, crear conciencia a través de la escritura, el arte, el podcasting, etc

DBS checked and have house and pet sitting references if needed.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting people, I am a good listener, coach and counsellor, very empathic and helpful, I am also a licensed Hypnotherapist, if you want a PLR I can do a past life regression for you.

I love animals as well as being an environmental writer, I teach and do online coaching and negotiations. I have a lot of pets as I rescue cats and dogs, since I have been in Ecuador, Peru, Guatemala and Mexico. I have rescued, sterilized and rehomed about 28 cats and dogs.

So, I find people here that like animals and helping with rescue animals or that want a Past Life Regression, or a clinical hypnotherapy session in exchange for a room or for Pet sitting, I am also on the trusted pet sitters site.

Music, Movies, and Books

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

1. Teaching children ecology and the importance of nature at several schools in Guatemala through art and ecology and in Ecuador.

2.Helping out with delivering supplies of food and medicine to Perdinales, the Earthquake Epicenter and to Mompiche an animal refuge for 80 cats and dogs, 17 horses, 5 cows and 14 ducks and chickens, in Ecuador for the 7.8 Earthquake in April 2016.

3. I have rescued a lot of stray dogs and cats, two years ago I rescued and rehomed 5 dogs, this year I have 5 dogs and 6 cats, I hand reared two kittens who were one week old when I found them, they are now 5 months old.

4. Written a book, it takes a lot of discipline and passion to write a book.

5. Stayed with indigenous people in the Amazon rain forest for 3 weeks. Flown over the Amazon rain forest in a small apache plane into the deepest remotest part of the Jungle.

6. Almost died a number of times. So far I still am here breathing the miracle of life...

Teach, Learn, Share

Happy to exchange knowledge. Lifecoaching, Grief or PTSD Counseling, Hypnotherapy sessions, I am also a Past Life Regressionist expert.
