Who I AM: Soham….I Am……

I am a mother, explorer, wanderer and yoga lover. I earn my living primarily from teaching yoga and fitness classes. I am brave, adventurous, wild and fun! I love to play on my mat and enjoy life to the fullest. I travel as often as possible. I try to eat healthy – as long as I can still have coffee and chocolate! I love to find a good bargain, eat healthy food and encourage others to live their best life!

What I DO: What do I do?

I teach yoga – fun, playful yoga that makes your body move and your skin sweat! I teach Inversions for Beginners, I teach Stand Up Paddle Board Yoga, I build individual practices for clients and I LOVE to teach yoga outdoors!

I teach fitness – group classes are my specialty. A full body workout that moves you from head to toe! I always include a little balance and core work – because who doesn’t need to improve their balance?

I teach Health & Wellness – Because there is a lot more to loving your life than just exercise. How do you speak to yourself? Do you give yourself a break or are you as mean as hell to the inner you? I can help you learn to break these habits.

I am a writer – Mostly things that make me wonder or that I find fascinating. All from my point of view which CAN be a little twisted at times. I also love to write studio reviews for places I have visited, new exercises I have tried, and new teachers I enjoy!

I am a Professional Pet Sitter – From Europe to the U.S. folks have invited me to live in their home with their pets so that their loves can remain in their own environment while the humans go on vacation! Yay!

Organization – As a recovering perfectionist I am in love with my label maker! I love clear plastic totes and anything that is color coordinated. Let me help you organize your office, closets, child’s rooms and kitchen.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am counchsurfing my way to my new home in Riverside, California. Just a short trip to the surface of the sun where there is no water, the hills are brown and wild fires rage - exciting huh? Can you tell I'm not really sure about moving there? LOL

I am currently re-reading Eat Pray Love by Elizabeth Gilbert. I love her!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

While visiting Costa Rica we got up at 4 am one morning to travel down to the lagoon. We kayaked around and watched the sun come up, the Red Macaws fly overhead and listened to the howler monkeys greet the morning!
