About Me

CURRENT MISSION

stop. breathe. think. then keep on walking....

ABOUT ME

I am on a trip in the canary islands and looking for eco and alternative people and communities to connect with in dance, music, yoga, self healing meditation, holistic nutrition. I work with this in switzerland, my project: www.be-vivant.com

I am energetic and open minded and enjoy meeting people, talking, learning, experiencing new things, seeing things from different perspectives, questioning ideas and ideals. Being fun and care free, breaking rules!.... Don't just accept the rule, keep a questionning and open mind...

I love the outdoors and running until i am exhausted. i love to be active and love the fresh air, i love music and going to festivals, i love fooood! i like dancing, and reading, and being spontaneous, this makes you feel young and alive.
I also love to be calm and relaxed, live in the moment and do nothing but just be. I believe that the best way to be is natural and when it comes to health and lifestyle try to do everything as naturally as possible.

I love nature, eating what grows from the ground, making friends with the locals at the markets on Saturdays, I am a vegetarian, I like beans.. they give you ENERGY!

PHILOSOPHY

expect less, give more.
If life throws lemons at you, drink tequila!!
Life is measured by how much you love, how gently you live and how gracefully you let go of things not meant for you (Buddha)

Music, Movies, and Books

music - anything calm with a melody, anything beautiful.
books - i judge books by their covers - if its old and beautiful on the outside it will be beautiful on the inside.
movies - anything that will make you think and keep you on your toes.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Reaching the top of Annapurna base camp in the himalayas.
that's just one of them to be honest, i feel like i have done many amazing things in life already but there are so many things left still to do!

Teach, Learn, Share

i can teach you about the Red Cross, how to knit, how to dance in the rain, how to speak english with an english accent, languages, nutrition, naturopathy, psychology... what more, i don't know, probably more things than i realise. i'd like to learn all sorts of things and believe that sharing is one of the best feelings
