About Me

CURRENT MISSION
Sailing South! We left Seattle mid-October and we are journeying down to Mexico for warmer weather. We are making stops along the way to check out the towns along the coast and make connections with all the bright beautiful souls fate grants us the privilege to encounter. Our sailboat is our traveling vessel and our home so every now and then we need a break from being out on the water. We love to share stories, meals and wine! We are great company and would love to hear what life is like from your perspective!

ABOUT ME

I studied Biology and Environmental Studies in school. I'm from a small mountain town in Colorado. I am really easy going, always happy and love to be helpful where I can. I like meeting new people and seeing the world!

PHILOSOPHY

Walk with Gratitude, Speak with Love, Keep your hands open - Give with an open hand ; receive with an open hand.

Interests

I love animals, children and anything outdoors. My favorite outdoor activities include horseback riding, hiking, mountain biking, rafting, camping and sitting out by a campfire at night. I'm into organic gardening and love sustainability and self reliance. I am really passionate about teaching and doing my yoga and I finished my level three Reiki certification this past year.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love good underground hip hop! Any music you feel in your soul that makes you wanna move your body! Books - tooo many but anything by Tom Robbins is a good start! Don't watch too many movies - documentaries of any kind.
