Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
I want to see and learn everything.
ABOUT ME
I'm generally found with my nose in a book, planning a snowboarding or backpacking trip, drinking wine, falling over in yoga class, teaching people how to find groundwater with well logging equipment, speaking Spanish with my husband, traveling to another country, or playing with my coonhound pup. I love learning everything down to the language and detailed history of everywhere I go as well as meeting new people.
PHILOSOPHY
I find that everything works out as long as I don't panic and have some patience.

Music, Movies, and Books
Too many books to list here, but if you visit my place, you'll see the obsession first hand.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I took a 2 and a half week road trip from Denver, CO to Mexico City across to San Blas on the Pacific and then back up through the Sierra Madre Occidental on mostly back roads with my best friend and two Dutch guys.
What I Can Share with Hosts
Kindness, a local's perspective, and a comfy couch.
