About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Uncovering basic Sanity

ABOUT ME

A-typical Buddhist vagabond, the planet is worth seeing and taking care of as our basic home, countries and cities come next in the list. Traveling has been part of mind and heart opening from very young age, my parents used to take me or send me off at every opportunity
At heart a natural therapist ( homeopathic, acupuncture, various forms of massage, Watsu, herbal medicine East and West. Formely martial artist Tai Chi Chuan Yang Style,
At work , involved in web2 developments to foster open communication even for those who cannot afford to travel quite yet or still need to discover their inner curiosity and courage to do so.

PHILOSOPHY

Vajrayana Buddhist so Just be kind

Emotions are tools to personal discovery, the world we perceive is not "out there" but the very habitual tendencies we develop over many live times of behavior, karmic happenings. WE do not need to be prey to them , recognising those personal tendencies yields the key to leaving them just where they are, eliminating the need for conflicts and addictions

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Not sure yet, ways will find me even if I have no idea they exist right now .. LOL !
Currently not really equipped to have regular couch surfer but happy to host for a night here and ther when there is affinity. Always open when around for a coffee, a chat, a tour of my mountains and a meal !

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In an informal way, have always had people either dropping in or openign their dorrs for me from word of mouth, even before I knew of somethign called CS. Suppose it will carry on as usual, but it is nice tool to plan and work with.

Interests

Shall we quote my non interests ? it maybe faster !
Seriously anything to do with nature, the environment,been there when someone needs help, so natural medicines, trekking, horse riding, biking, swimming, music classical and rock, traveling, setting up sustainable projects or assisting in their set up,well you get the idea...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My life seems to have been a series of "amazing things" following each other. A fond memory is that of the Round the world trip with my 7-y-0 daughteron a shoe string, thing one could still do then but unfortunately with the way the world is developing would no longer be possible today!

Teach, Learn, Share

I offer courses in Natural Medicines and my wish if I had any would be to set up a border and means free university to preserve and utilize the therapeutic tools gathered over the millenia.
It is definitvely one of the nicest development I can see in CS to open up meetings and exchanges, very much part of my ordinary way of doing or seeing things
