CURRENT MISSION

Grow, open, explore. Find the lesson. Watch the shadows. Balance.

ABOUT ME

My name is Sophie. I have 28 years. I studied Theatre Arts at the University of Oregon, and I care very much about this beautiful paradise we have the honor to call home.
One of my strengths is finding the silver lining in most any situation.
Things I like: volunteering, eating delicious food, reading aloud, reiki, yoga, dancing, movies/books/theatre/music, being in nature, massage, sleeping.

GOAL

Trying to see everything as 'myself,' and putting out the energy I want to get back. Letting go of being afraid of disappointing others.

Magical stays in Peru, Chile, Uruguay, Scotland, and throughout the southwest USA that I could never forget.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books: 100 Years of Solitude (anything by Marquez), The Lizard Cage, Atlas Shrugged, The Disappeared, Autobiography of Red, and that damned Hunger Games/Harry Potter series. Because I am a millennial.

Film: (Lately) Call Me By Your Name. Baby Driver. Moonlight.

(Of Old) All the Miyazaki films. Anything directed by Wes Anderson. Also, Little Miss Sunshine, Fight Club, Titanic. Romeo and Juliet (1968) and most all Disney movies. Could give you a scene/scene of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Oh! Hitchhiked through Scotland with a poet. Danced around the fire for the full moon on the beach in Puerto Rico. Stayed in a cabin in Alaska by myself. Volunteered at a turtle hatchery in Costa Rica. Volcano boarding in Nicaragua. A month exploration of Mexico, Belize, and Guatemala. Three months in South American with my best friend, Machu Picchu and an ayahuasca ceremony. Drove from California to Texas, 3 times.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am open to adventures.
I can do a tarot spread for you, a Reiki healing, or head massage.
I would love to share writings, music, ideas.
If you play music, I'll listen, and I might even dance.
