ABOUT ME

Hey there. I am somebody who has managed to escape regular life... . Living and working half of the year in Guatemala, travelling and discovering the world the other half. A very long, unconventional way, but I am glad I did it that way.

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let live. respect life - so life automatically respects you.
life - for as hard as it seems sometimes -
is a gift.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It is a cool way to meet people and get to know places thouroughly.

Interests

Besides travelling I am still very idealistic - and like to help when I can. I organized lots of environmental activities here in Guatemala, including TV shows and radio programs to help open up the consciousness of people. You can find more about that either on YouTube: www.youtube.com/corazonverdetv or on www.corazonverdeguate.wordpress.com
And I like history. I have cycled 18000km around Europe in five summers, and walked around the Alps - I just love nature. But as well the feel of old cities and their history.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

against all warnings I rode my very simple bicycle around Europe - all alone as a woman (because I wanted to do just so) - sleeping outside in the woods, on the riverbanks or whereever - and sometimes having wonderful encounters. these more than 20.000 km have shaped my life even more. as well as my stays in the mountains - encounters with yourself... .
And I finally published one of my books: "Die Reise ins Ich oder Paco - Eine Hommage an die Freiheit und gegen die Angst."
