Hey! My name is Jetta and I'm out exploring the world! I'm originally from the midwestern United States, but I've spent most of the past seven years living in California. I went to college at San Diego State University, and have spent the past six years working in Yosemite National Park. I love all that is outdoors; hiking climbing swimming - all of it! Writing, reading, practicing yoga are all good things, too. Not much of a partier, but I do like to spend time with others. I've spent the past six months studying yoga asana, meditation, and Thai Yoga Massage throughout India.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

You can learn something from everyone you meet. Great way to meet like minded people, travel cheaply, and pass along good vibes and trust in mankind.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I saw a guy selling starfish on the boardwalk one day that were still alive, so I bought them all and threw them back into the ocean.

Teach, Learn, Share

Comfort is its own demise.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I've spent the past six months studying yoga and massage in India. I do a mix of therapeutic and relaxing techniques rooted in Thai Yoga Massage. I also do reiki and would like to teach alignment-based yoga asana if interested. I also make a mean cup of chai masala if I have all of the million spices I need!
