About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Ask not what the world needs, but what makes you come alive, because what the world needs is people who have come alive...

ABOUT ME

There is so much beauty around... Life is an art.......and I love art....
...I am an inquisitive, a spiritual, a passionate, a caring person
.....the life is created out of dream.......
Born and rased next to the sea, inside of fjord, below the mountains, Freud says we form our personalities by the age of 3, max 6...
I am a child of the universe
i feel i am simple in my complications yet complicated in my simplicity

Self expression through creativity is important to me, I express myself through dance and acting, I dance almost every day or every second day, belly dance, salsa, samba, free movement, flamenco etc. Love martial arts, jujitsu is my favourite, love my friends and life, laugh a lot, sometimes too much.....travel a lot, love being in nature, camping, gardening, love going to festivals
work: dancer/performer and an English teacher, changed many careers: finance (investments), marketing, entertainment, education
love learning, at the moment I am taking singing classes and improving my languages, love languages, speak four
.
I consider myself very lucky, I actually love my job, I teach languages and dance...
I've travelled around the world, have been to all the continents, feel as a citizen of the Earth
a big child that dreams and plays a lot......

PHILOSOPHY

Taoism
you can only step once into the same river
the change is the only constant thing

Don't take life too seriously, at the end nobody gets out of it alive!

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn’t serve the world. There’s nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We are born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us, it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” Nelson Mandela

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

have danced many many nights under the stars, bare feet in the bush of Australia, all night long
