PHILOSOPHY

a nice flow of consecuences took me here, i am living a long deserved dream, traveling and performing all around, I want to decelerate this fast nowadays way of living, feeling that I can survive whereever I go without being attached to a fix schedule. I want to meet people in a natural way, not pussing anything, things reveal by themselves if u wish them and know how to wait. If u follow the path of the heart. I consider life as a constant creative challenge, Âny dificulty is a new test, I need to use my art to comunicate, to meet others, to give and recive. I want to eat ealthier and live ealthier. I like to be usefull to others. I like to make people happy and consfortable. I like to take care.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I hosted two guys 2 years ago in Amsterdam, they just asked me in the street, it seemed they had lost their couch. they told me about CS. I found it an amazing idea. A visionary concept to fight the age of panic we are leaving in, to find again the intuition and enjoiment of meeting people in a respectfull way and feel at home wherever u go.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I saw my mother recovering from her sickness this year, she came back to life and published her cook book...that was amazing, I am thankful for that.

Teach, Learn, Share

I regualry teach workshops in movement/dance and improvisation. and lately I also give some classes in Hang playing techniques and costume design basics, I love to cook a lot for others making big ealthy meals. that is normally the gift I like to do when I go to someones home. It makes my specially happy being in front ot a sewing machine transforming an abstract piece of clothe into something weareable, giving new life to te waste
