About Me

CURRENT MISSION

PHILOSOPHY

I'm always changing and learning. I try to be open to divine guidance but also stay practical. Also I wanna have fun and love and laughter.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have surfed for one night in Madrid and 2 in Valencia. I suppose I did couch surfing without knowing it when I hosted for 2 young animal rights activists travelling from Vienna a couple of years ago and enjoyed the experience.

Interests

I enjoy singing (got some tracks on iTunes) most kinds of dance especially salsa, 5 rhythms and bachata
I am vegan and an animal rights activist. I like abstract humour and a good belly laugh. I am also into running.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seeing members of Spanish animal rights activist group Equanimal jumping into a bullring to protest as seen on national television.

The view of the Syndney Opera House had me in tears just cos it felt like an amazing thing to be seeing. Ditto for the view of New York coming over one of the bridges there at night time.

The pyramid of the Sun in Tenochtitlan really did it for me seeing as how I studied Hispanic studies.

Someone dancing really good salsa or performing some great acrobatic trick or a good street juggler usually has me whooping and applauding (I used to fire-juggle on the street and do gymnastics so it stirs stuff in me).

Simple things like seeing the vast open plains often lined with olive groves driving through Spain and the big open skies also rock my world.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach everyone to juggle in about 8 minutes and have done so in various countries.

Dancing such as salsa, bachata.

I'd love to learn how to sew clothes and record my own music.
