Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To discover the things I never knew I always wanted.
ABOUT ME
I am originally from Dallas (though I lived in New York City for over a decade). Light-hearted and easy going, I am a retreat organizer, yoga instructor, and budding reiki practitioner who thoroughly enjoys meeting new people and lending a helping hand.
PHILOSOPHY
The world can be a magical place if you let it! I strive to experience it deeply. The best way for me to really get a feel for a new place is on foot. I try to walk as much as I can, touching the ground whenever possible.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
To connect to the people. I find making a friend is the single most effective way to fully experience a place. And life in general.

Music, Movies, and Books
I'm into wordplay and fantastical worlds. I'll read most anything, but I love stories you can lose yourself in!
Ethereal sounds and indie silliness, but occasionally I find myself hankerin' for a beat.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
One time while traveling, I accidentally ran into previously-unknown distant relatives at a café. Ask me about it. I like telling the story.
Teach, Learn, Share
I am more than happy to cook a meal, share some yoga, teach some English, translate some Spanish, and provide sound layman advice on a wide variety of subjects.
