Profile information

Travel information

I am currently

Travelling

Activities i am interested in:

Open-hearted meetings, forming authentic relationships, interacting with other souls and nature, spiritual practice, dancing, singing, hiking, and discovering new mountains and valleys
Description

I love discovering new parts of myself through every encounter and every place along the way. I’m guided by a desire for deep connections and creative exchanges of perspectives, community dreams of collaboration, and visions of life in harmony with nature, in small villages and local realities.

I studied as a nurse. Currently, in Switzerland, I offer gong baths and I share retreats for experiencing a simple, mindful life in the mountains.

Being present and bringing care wherever I go gives me direction and meaning. I live simply, to remain grounded in what is essential and to honor what truly matters in life.

I describe myself as respectful, curious, enthusiastic, adventurous yet calm, quick to adapt, eager to learn new things, and deeply connected to nature.

I seek experiences that are genuine, enriching, and expansive : ones that contribute to making the world a more beautiful place.
