Songs for the heart
Fascinated by the Celtic culture, I started playing the harp at the age of 12 and she has accompanied me ever since. I write my own lyrics and compose my own songs. Music-making guides me through the storms of life: its enchanting forests and its deep, deep oceans.
Being in love with the gifts of nature, most of my songs turn into hymns to her and life itself, aiming at healing and strengthening our primal bond. Our Connection with Pacha Mama and with one another as human beings of heart and soul.
I hold concerts, singing circles and ceremonies and teach creative writing.
I am a mother of three and for many years I have led a nomadic lifestyle in Southamerica and Europe with my beloved, homeschooling our children. In 2022 my family and I founded Tierra Jucumari - Reserva del Oso, a little nature-reserve and retreat centre in the South of Ecuador. Supporting my art, You support our activism for the primal forest of the Andean Region and the natural habitat of the endangered spectacled bear.
I hold an MA in literature and philosophy, as well as different degrees from Escuela Alteridad, Quito in Andean indigenous thought, healing and cosmovision and I am working on a phd in literature on the woman as a healer.
I am currently based near Basle, Switzerland.
