Overview
About Me
Okay, I'm going to you back to before I was born! My mom swam with a captive dolphin in the Yucatan every day for a month while she was pregnant with me. Six months later, I was born in London, England underwater.
We lived in Utah for a few years, but I kept begging my mother (every day) to take me to the ocean to swim with dolphins. So Mom gave in, and our family moved to Maui when I was 6 yrs. old. There (and on the Big Island) I swam with dolphins, had a horse, went to the Waldorf School, ate a lot of sushi and lived in the ‘upcountry’ 4,000 ft. above sea level on Mt. Haleakala.
Four years later we moved to Sedona, Arizona (my parents believe in living in places where you feel like you’re on vacation!) My mom started home schooling me and when I was 12 we traveled to the Yucatan and I swam with the dolphin my mom swam with when she was pregnant with me. We camped on the beach for a month and then we camped in a few amazing places and saw temples in Mexico on our way to Antigua, Guatemala. It was so beautiful in Guatemala! The people and the food, everything was so amazing. I took horseback riding lessons (jumping) 4 days a week. We left after 7 months and returned to Sedona. I was 13.
In Hawaii and Arizona we’ve always had horses and I’ve ridden in the most beautiful places. I’m sort of an animal magnet and we’ve adopted/rescued kittens, puppies and horses!
I joined a home school group when I was 15 and we all learned how to ballroom dance. I ADORE ballroom (and dancing in general) and am constantly looking for where I can go ballroom dancing!
I just turned 18 on May 6th and I'm already ready to go and travel! I’m on my way to Bali and after that I’m living in the mystery!
You might be thinking my family has a lot of money by how much we have done and where we’ve lived (plus having quite a few horses over the years). But actually we are just really good at manifesting! I’ve learned to trust whatever is happening, and I’ve been blessed with meeting kind, loving people wherever I go!
