Hi, I'm Scarlett! I'm a musician, surfer, burner, DJ, humanitarian, activist, and founder of [Illumina Tribe] (http://www.illumina.io). Illumina Tribe is a member's club offering beginning in Mykonos in July featuring healing modalities, yoga, sound baths, and a Crypto Symposium with speakers like @SterlinLuxan, Jonathan Teo, Maya Lockwood, Toni Lane Casserly @tlc , and @xiwatt exploring the subject of "Crypto and Consciousness" [Visit our site here: www.illumina.io] (http://www.illumina.com/crypto-symposium) . Our first activation is July 16th - 20th in Mykonos, and I hope to see you guys there! At the symposium we will be supporting environmental initiative [Oceanic Global] (http://oceanic.global) to raise awareness to reduce plastic waste within the hospitality industry, and I will be representing [XIWATT] (http://www.xiwatt.io) as we look forward to bringing blockchain-powered renewable energy to Tulum to get all the hotels off of generators. These are interesting times, and I look forward to this boutique Crypto Conference to converse on how we can use Crypto + Blockchain to make beautiful, good things happen in this world !

My humanitarian mission is to bring instruments and music instruction to marginalized people, such as trafficking survivors and refugees. My first ever mission was with Beauty for Freedom in Kolkata, India, where we raised funds through the generosity of our supporters by crowdfunding, donated instruments to the shelters, and I stayed for a month to teach piano and guitar. Music heals and transmutes, and it has been a joy to continue this mission around the world.

I look forward to exploring the Blockchain space and how it can impact humanitarian missions, to make raising funds more effortless, provide transparency to supporters, and to inspire more people to get involved with little missions like these. This photo is from the New Light shelter in Kolkata, me and the girls jamming out on their new guitars! 16602691_10155028554859283_5292842536289009954_n.jpg
For my next humanitarian mission in Mauritius, I've partnered up with PAOLITA swimsuit brand and designed a collection where 100% of my profits go towards my mission with Vision Le Morne to provide instruments to the kids in Le Morne Village. 21106413_10155697487514283_7006529055067409084_n.jpg

As a performer, I have DJ'd around the world for over a decade in places like Robot Heart, Burning Man; Scorpios Mykonos; Watergate Berlin; and Output Brooklyn. I sometimes also take up residencies in resorts like Shangri-La Mauritius and LUX Maldives, performing as piano bar musician, DJing, and consulting and creating content for resorts social media accounts.

For fun, I love surfing, hiking, diving, and I'm currently in France taking in the beauty of wildflowers and learning French. I'll do a few posts about lifestyle, wellness, and fun stuff like making your own Green Tea Kombucha!

Welcome to STEEM Charlet :) I am fully going with your idea of using the blockchain for charity stuff as well. Together with @limesoda I have been at a local college where we introduced Steemit to a class and founded @steemarity, an account dedicated towards charity.

It's still rather small and mostly in german so far - but we have already accomplished some nice things with it.

Good luck on here, if you have questions, feel free to ask!

Greets, @theaustrianguy
