Description
Mostly my heart motivates me,
it leads me to connect with other people ,
to be in the moment together, fully, wholeheartedly, at a bus stop, in a shop, anywhere.
I love to find connection across cultures and continents. I love to find out, to explore.
I love to read.
I like to go deep.
I love to walk barefoot in nature, to dance,
to play with earth, clay and sand, sticks and stones, feathers and shells …
to be outside, to swim, to sleep under the stars …
I love to celebrate the Cycle of the Year!
I especially love and advocate for children and old people.
I care about justice and the sacred
