CURRENT MISSION

Taking a little step back from my online business for a couple of months to do some volunteer work in California.

Be kind and live a life of purpose; listen to your intuition and contribute to the world in your own unique way.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have a natural tendency to help people to let go of their stress and enjoy life more. I have the ability to help people to talk through their situation and come out the other end with more insight and even a solution if that's what they're seeking. And I'm a great cook! :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It's been a long time! In Sept 2012 I Couchsurfed in Stockholm, bunking up with an Indian student and a Spanish traveler - we stayed up until the early hours watching movies and then spent the day on a walking tour of Stockholm. I was grateful for the fun and unusual experience!

兴趣

I write songs, and I sing very well and play guitar quite badly.

I'm fascinated by our purpose, why we do stuff and what makes life fulfilling - I guess that's spirituality, philosophy, psychology...

I've spent time in monasteries, I meditate, do yoga when the mood takes me, and walk or cycle everywhere when possible.

I adore dogs, and appreciate art, culture and nature.

I'm that person who can miraculously put a well balanced meal together when there is "nothing" in the fridge...

音乐、电影和书籍

I tend to hold on to reference books - atlases, dictionaries, that sort of thing. Everything else I pass onward - there's no point something sitting on a shelf. I particularly loved the book Pay It Forward - what a beautiful concept. Music?Everything from breakbeat to kirtan!

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

An artwork installation in London by Richard Wilson called 20:50. Basically, a room half-filled with black engine oil so that the oil reflects the ceiling and you think it's the floor. Walking down the "gangplank" into the room, I was clueless until the gallery attendant softly blew into the oil to make ripples. My entire perspective turned upsidedown in an instant. Incredible.

教，学，和分享

Something I want the whole world to understand:

Gratitude. Without it, you have nothing. With it, you have everything.

Intelligent and insightful conversation, reiki, life coaching, singing to your guitar playing, cooking (I'll show you how to make a really simple yet totally mean banana bread!), great company, and a little help around the house! :)
