CURRENT MISSION

Live, love, laugh

ABOUT ME

I'm whimsical and up for adventures. Traveling has been amazing and now I'm back in the Bay Area creating a career as a yoga instructor and somatic therapist.

My favorite things to do are dance Salsa and Afro-Brazilian, practice yoga, go on hikes, watch silly movies, be in nature, cook, and eat yummy and healthy food.

PHILOSOPHY

"The cure for anything is salt water- sweat, tears or the sea."
-Isak Dineson

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like to nest, share my home with friends and fellow travelers, and give people the opportunity to know the Bay Area. I've met amazing people and made many good friends through couchsurfing.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I love how different every Couchsurfing experience is, both as host and guest. I met many beautiful friends when I lived in Colombia, with whom I lived.
