  • Description

    What makes me happy is playing carefree like a child, feeling life through my body and mind, learning, doing and being aware and courageous. I like adventures and simplicity: the sea, the mountains, sports, company, and also solitude. I truly enjoy feeling alive.




    For ten years I've been traveling in many different ways. Sometimes I stop working, sometimes volunteering, other times I’ve been an hermit. Along the time, I've seen many extraordinary people around the world; they've taught me beautifull approaches to life situations or just showed me some of their particular and personal views. I also like to understand how we differentiate both on the individual level and the group levels. And how we all contribute to color the world.



    I have attended the University of Architectural Engineering for four years but I never ended it.

    I have worked as professional bartender ( 10years).

    And after that I started travelling.



    Some deep experience during the journey;

    I spent five months in a meditation center during the lockdown, where I practiced the Vipassana meditation technique. It was like living in a monastery, but for lay people. It has been a very profound experience. Every moment was so precious. I could learn the technique and I can teach the basics.
    I practice awareness every day, almost every moment.


    Instead the most extreme and adventurous experience of my journey was in India in the Himalayas, where I spent 20 long and almost endless days alone in wild environment at 4,500 meters far from human connection and civilisation.
    It was really an odyssey!




    Now I’m longing to learn yoga so my next journey in November in India is focusing on yoga.




    I'll be happy to meet wonderful people along the way and share love, energy, and harmony.
    See you! 🤗☀️
