About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Appreciating the plentiful gifts of life, sharing the abundance and enjoying good times with friends, family and lovely people on my way!

ABOUT ME

Describing oneself in few words is never an easy task, but guess if i would mention some qualities, i would say I'm openminded, empathic, sun-loving, positive, enthusiastic, adventurous and present - with a good apetite for Life!

PHILOSOPHY

Life is an amazing present to explore and unfold in all its facets, shapes and colours. I'm deeply grateful to be part of this grand adventure! I see us as one big human family, all with different qualities to contribute. As we dance along the path of life we can help each other discover our gifts and blossom.
