Lehren, lernen, teilen
I have an enquiring mind which I have fed with a wide range of knowledge. It is so pleasing to get to sharing a variety of considered perspectives with other enquiring minds.
I practise a bit of NLP, and thrive on being conscious of the buzz of inner-development.
Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann
Fresh perspectives on life, historical and scientific considerations, political thought, the beauty and frustrations of South Africa. And of course a room for a night and some snacks.
