About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To soak in as much culture and knowledge through travel as is humanly possible.

ABOUT ME

A mover and a shaker; I like to learn and to discover. I blow off steam by jumping from rock to rock on the beach and scrambling through the woods. I do yoga almost everyday and I am training to be a yoga teacher, not because I want to teach but because I wanted to learn to be a better student. I love book stores and libraries, and reading, of course. I'm vegan and a smoothie expert. I like to sleep under the stars and lay in the sun. I'm an excellent tucker-inner and reader of bedtime stories. I can run pretty fast. I hate grammatical errors. I am studying the anthropology of childhood and it's so fascinating that I do research in my spare time. I wish I was more musical. My landlord recently called me resourceful and I think she's right.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Won a shoot out with basketball superstar Steve Nash.
Sat with a beached grey whale as it died.
Drank from a wine fountain on a dusty trail.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you to balance a friend on your feet, no hands, or help you make almond butter. I'd like to improve my hula hooping skills and learn to salsa.
