About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Creating days!

ABOUT ME

Short-oppened-eyes woman.
Mix between silence and noise; between all the colours and white.
Love creativity and knowing (& pushing) limits.
I like being alive, freshness, music and flying.
(Non-smoker).

PHILOSOPHY

IMPROVISATION IN LIFE. And FLOW!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I learnt, heard, talked about music, books, the stars, the kangaroos, food and drinks, sensibility, education love, friendship, creativity, help...
And meet people I can trust.

Interests

Lose people and situations.
Love Dancing, special Contact Improvisation, African dance and Folk. All kinds of improvisation as well!
I like walking, travelling, talking and listening, laughing a lot, listening good music (love jazz).
Comic books and postcards, both sending and writing.
Writing and just observing.

Also I live with this feeling of wanting to "eat the world". The more I know, the more I want to keep going knowing it.
Also love the sun on my skin, sunset on the sea, dance with lots of people, feel a little crazy for some time.. :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well... Exist, I think! That's an amazing thing, and takes (and gives) a lot of energy!

Teach, Learn, Share

I like to cook! Can share with you you how to make soups, fish dishes and some improvisation in kitchen:)
Or dance...
Learn? EVERYTHING! To start knowing or to improve. Always open.
But I mostly believe in share. Share ideas, perspectives, adventures, dreams, discussions,...
