THE STORY OF

It all began in Peru in 2024, during my three month pilgrimage through the Andes. I joined a Gong ceremony in the Sacred Valley. In that moment, as the Gongs carried me on an intense sonic journey and the Sun was shining directly into my face, something shifted within me.
I knew that when I returned home, my life would never be the same again.
I had to let go of my old work as a hypnotherapist and bodyworker. But what was meant to come next remained unknown.

Until, after many Gong ceremonies in Peru and the Netherlands, I finally heard the call.After a conversation with Pauline Fabry, it became clear. I had to build my own MeteoriteGong at Mount Etna.
I didn't have the money, nor did I have any knowledge about Gongs. But that didn't matter. What mattered was the mystical feeling deep within me, followed by an enormous YES.

In June 2025, I stepped onto a plane bound for Sicily.Just days before my arrival, Mount Etna had shown signs of increased activity. Yet I wasn't afraid at all. The more frightening part was driving through the night in a rental car to my Airbnb at the foot of Etna.

That was my very first encounter with her.The next morning, I stood looking at her when, suddenly, she released a white heart.

Perfect.
