    More details about my language interests
    I feel confident to teach anything I can wrap my head around, but also am a strong believer that our so called modern school system is rather a prison and we need to be in nature and allow ourself and our children to learn intuitively by experience rather than fear and obedience. There is so much more to life than trying to remember academic information just to be able to recite it for a test and then forget again.

  • More details about your skills

    I'm a typical jack of all trades. I've travelled the globe, worked and lived longer times abroad. I am a certified clinic clown (I love children) and have a nursing degree, which I obtained only a few years back when I decided to do something worth while instead of working for some shareholders dividend and further contributing to the destruction of our livelihood. I have got an international business degree, which I used to climb up that career ladder before becoming a nurse, so I know both sides of the coin. I've always taken time off to explore and do what most probably won't. I've worked with sled dogs, helped harvesting, planted about 10.000 trees or more, worked on a farm with about 80 horses, have been involved in renovation and construction jobs, have walked the whole Portuguese coast all by myself, sleeping in my hammock along the way, coping with only what would fit in my little backpack for months at a time and many other adventures. The story seams endless and overwhelming for this little box here. I'm also really talented when it comes to thinking outside the box, coming up with solutions to complex problems and working with all kinds of handy tools. I've been told many times, I'm a great cook as well, very proactive and a hard worker. I like to make sure that everyone around me is happy. I am a quick learner, can adapt to the most challenging circumstances and am a constant seeker. You want to know more? Host me and find out :-D

  • What else ...

    I believe in love, not hate, in peace, not war, in abundance for all, instead of way more than enough for only a few. I believe in great opportunities for everyone, and travelling inward rather than searching for whatever is out there won't help me with anyway. I do love to travel and have done plenty of it over the past three decades. Getting to know other people and places can be a great joy and internal growth opportunity. I love to get to know different cultures. I'm more the off the beaten tracks kind of girl and love sleeping in nature and under the stars in my hammock every now and then, when weather and circumstances allow, although I have been caught up in some storms as well, and I survived, wet but happy. I can manage crowded spaces and have visited many great cities, but prefer nature. I don't plan long ahead, I'd rather consider myself a drifter (in a metaphorical way), I'm like a leaf on the river, I go wherever the current takes me. I can swim really well, through life and water the same :-D I love yoga and meditation, have done some scuba diving and other fun sports in the past and have been to Sadhguru's ashram in Coimbatore for three months just this past winter. I'm physically fit, quite strong and love to use my body. I'm ready for whatever challenge life has in store for me and embrace every day as a new adventure. I would love to learn how to sail a boat and one day live in an off grid self sustained eco community that wants to live in harmony with mother nature instead of exploiting our paradise we are so privileged to call home ♥️
