I was living and working in Calgary Alberta for 12 years in supply chain / project management. But for a very long time, wanted a different experience - to travel, learn new skills and explore many beautiful countries. So, several years ago I left my job, rented my home in Canada, sold my car, and packed my bag for new experiences! After some time adventure-traveling, I settled in Peru, and have been there now for a few years, but I still travel and work internationally.

I love learning & am a health & wellness warrior and advocate! I am a writer, teacher, cook, international lecturer and specialize working with clients to release trauma and stress from their mental, physical, and energetic bodies (through EFT, TRE, Reiki, Sacred Dance, & other modalities). If I am not chatting with everyone, I can be found in my two favourite places - in the kitchen, or behind a book!! I am very social and love interesting conversation - usually with a cup of tea in one hand and surrounded by food, laughter and friends.

I want to learn more about other countries and regions specialty dishes and learn how to cook from locals. I have a few favourite recipes I could share with you too.

I like to be active but like NEED the grounding of my yoga and meditation practice to keep me in balance.

Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

Meet new local people and have adventures, learn to cook regional favourites from others with local and fresh ingredients, and to share my favourite dishes.

I'm travelling and working to expand my cooking (errrrm and of course EATING) skills and knowledge base, to work with international clients, and make to new friends

Классная вещь, которую я сделал(-а)

I find it amazing when I arrive at a new location or activity as planned, but find it soul-fulfilling when I get purposefully lost, or pleasantly distracted along the way.

Also my dog & I spent a month in the remote Amazon jungle with a traditional tribe learning about plants and their cultural and spiritual traditions.

Учу, учусь, делюсь опытом и информацией

Yes, yes, yes

Чем я могу поделиться с хостами

Love of food, conversational English ( I am also a certified English teacher) , knowledge of most Beatles Lyrics, respect, the occasional experimental new recipe experience that turns disastrous, epiphanies, lessons, and of course great memories.
