About Me

ABOUT ME

...I love getting up early on sunny days, listening to loud barock-music while having a big big big cup of juice or two or three before leaving for a hiking tour or to the outdoor pool
...I love playing the accordeon, singing with friends, dancing traditional dances from all over the world
...I love going to the sauna and after hopping into cold water or snow outside
...I love travelling, being on the road with my bagback, watching people and landscapes passing by
...I love cooking and baking good things and eating together with old and new friends
...I love sitting at the fireplace for hours and days, listening to the voices of the wind, the silence, a good story
...I love hosting and bringing together people from different backrounds
...I love walking barefeet in the sand of a beach somewhere in Danmark and suddenly jumping into the waves
...I love facilitating theatre workshops and creating spaces that open up courage and creativity
...I love laughing loudly and talking about things we normally don't talk about in public

...sometimes I am afraid of big amounts of people around me, sometimes I enjoy that same thing. sometimes I could burst from energy and ideas and sometimes I feel totally fragile and empty. sometimes I speak and talk and tell stories and stories and stories and sometimes I am without words, not even able to say one whole sentence. sometimes sometimes sometimes...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

...waking up on top of the cliffs near Anzenhas do Mar (Westcoast of Portugal) with someone I love very much, lots of wind, sun and the laughter of the seagulls...

Teach, Learn, Share

...always keen on learning new instruments, languages or how to do good massage; with sharing there are few limits depending on who I am with.. and probably there are things you could also learn from me, but how can I know what it is?

What I Can Share with Hosts

there are lots of things to share, depending on your interests and needs... I am always fond of good stories to be told, cooking together, a fire outside, playing music together.. what about you?
