One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Every day lived in alignment with the will of the Universe feels like a totally amazing gift and blessing. La vida bonita, can we do anything more amazing than just waking up and following our own hearts?

Maybe one specific thing that I’m trying to do now is to find my footing out West, explore conscious festivals here, dive into farming, permaculture, guitar, Spanish language, and the experiences/life stories from people who live here. Connect with the land. Move between the magic of western North America and southern Peru in the next couple years, before heading back with new knowledge and energies to contribute to my Appalachian home lands.

Teach, Learn, Share

I’d love to see what we can teach, learn, and share together. Currently learning Spanish, tarot, guitar, and ukulele. I have a regular yoga practice and love to share all things yoga.
Heavy interest in folk music and healing/medicine sounds, but love sharing and learning about all kinds of music!
I also love making curry. Way too much curry, like, to feed a family of 6 every time (is there any other way?). I’d love to exchange and connect over any/all of these and whatever else might come up.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Vegetarian/vegan foods, happiness, good energy, friendship, a couch to surf one day wherever i am in the world :)
I have my guitar with me, and while I’m a very beginner, I’d be happy to share a song or two if the moment feels right!
