Hello dear friends!
For as long as I can remember it has always been my dream to travel the globe and to learn about new cultures and the beautiful vibrant people and lifestyles that make up our global community.
I am extremely passionate about the arts and artistic expression of all kinds and I am a student of Butoh dance theatre. I am also a student of Buddhism and practice mindfulness meditation. I would love to learn about some of the practices and creative outlets that you feel passionate about and I would be thrilled to share in them with you.
I am looking for a place where I can return to my roots, and learn about living in harmony with nature. I am a firm believer in creating more than I consume and I am working toward a zero-waste lifestyle. I live a plant based lifestyle and feel very passionately about further developing my relationship to the earth and to the food I eat.
I am very interested in authentic communication and how we can use speech to build honest relationships that are in service of a beneficial culture. I love to listen to music, dance, read, explore, spend time in nature, and play with children and animals.

Community is something that I hold very dear to me and it means a lot to me for you to even consider opening up your home to me and inviting me into your family and community.
I cannot wait to see what incredible opportunities await me on my journey and I sincerely hope that you will be a part of my travels.

Much Love and Gratitude,
Ripley
