PASSIONATE ABOUT Im a life scientist in love with nature... Trying to take things easy and have fun. I volunteer and support Veganism, Conscious Consumption, Reforestation, Sustainable Relations and Human Interactions, Eco-Intentional Communities. Also into ancient wisdom rescue and different Regenerative innitiatives. **Yes, I do have the big dream to be part of a planet that doesn't need to be saved from us!** ABOUT ME I'm happy when I'm in nature or when sharing spaces free of fear where I can be myself knowing I won't be judged...I love to hold this space for others too! I practice giving room for my emotions to be, so sometimes I just need to stay inside my own world enjoying myself. I'm not fanatic, but I do have clear practices that I follow and I m very aware of why I choose them. Im vegan, I try to have a consistant Yoga practice and I choose very consciously to have I life guided by it's principles. Please do not insist for me to eat meat, or to drink or smoke. I won't be insisting for you to do what I do neither. :) Let's celebrate our diversity! PHILOSOPHY We are being allowed to live on Earth by unlimited grace. Let's be the guardian of everything that comes thru and to us... Let's honor nature, animals, ancient wisdom, one another, all forms of life!! "The true freedom is when we free ourserlves from our mind. " Eckhart Tolle
