New Life
In 2013 I left my career, my family and friends, my country and moved to Hong Kong because of LOVE.
Life in Hong Kong changed me a lot. I learned a lot. I discovered many things inside which were hiding deep. Through constant practice of kundalini yoga, meditation, mantra singing I found myself and I realised how important it is to be connected with myself, how important it is to accept everything, how important it is to love.
Since then my music changed. My intentions about music and performance changed. My voice changed. My heart became wide open.
On my path of discovery I wrote many songs in 2015. I have been able to release them last year.
You can find them below.
Also in 2019 I created a documentary film about a Butoh Dancer ( Syv Bruzeau) who healed herself from cancer using art therapy, natural methods, finding love inside. You can watch the film below too.
