Overview
About Me
Hi! I’m Alisa (pronounced like ‘Lisa’ with an ‘A’ in front; uh-lee-sa). I was born and raised in Carmel, a small town located in “upstate” New York (which is actually only an hour north of the city). I’ve spent the past few years living in NYC and getting a taste of the hustle and bustle. Nowadays I’m spending more time upstate but still work in the city. My degree is in public health, and the work I do is surrounding humanitarian emergency preparedness and response. I also teach yoga on the side and have quite a few years of bartending up my sleeve.
I love nature and the outdoors; I am a bit of a workaholic but love what I do; I practice yoga and meditation regularly; I’m an alcohol enthusiast and vegetarian foodie (deathly allergic to peanuts lol); I have a very go-with-the-flow attitude & optimistic outlook; I will rarely say no to a spontaneous adventure.

What I Can Share with Hosts
I’m a yoga instructor so I can give free yoga lessons or face yoga lessons!! I can also help to cook a vegetarian meal :) I love conversation and hearing different perspectives from all walks of life. Though I enjoy hanging out with my hosts, I respect that everyone has their own daily lives/obligations to attend to!
