CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I live by intuition and listen to my heart, not very talkative, I prefer to listen first.

I believe that home is where your heart is, and now my home is here in Guangzhou, China.

I`ve changed many jobs, and at the moment I`m an English teacher in a kindergarten, and happy about it because the kids make me rediscover the joyful part of myself. They actually have taught me more than I`ve taught them :)

I like living in China because it has strong traditions and magnificent culture, China can teach one being patient and living simple life.

PHILOSOPHY

I m sure that everything in this world depends on everything, and pretty much everything is alive. And for me life is inspiration, the more we are inspired the more we are alive.
