CURRENT MISSION

to grow through self-expression.

ABOUT ME

My husband, Matt, and I love to travel and are currently settled in Tucson. Travel safe and visit if you can.

PHILOSOPHY

I don't know that I have a well-defined philosophy. Do good; recognize and nurture beauty; remain open; explore; be present and alive...

I couchsurf when traveling; host when I'm not on the road.
