PHILOSOPHY

"compassion is the heart of love, without compassion there can be no forgiveness, without forgiveness there can be no love, without love we have nothing"

this is the way i live my life. i love to travel and to meet new people and i believe that every person that we come into contact with has the opportunity to shape the type of person that we are, that we have the chance to learn from them if we are open enough for it. i try to live life to the most everyday and to learn from every experience that i find my self in.

Algo increíble que he hecho

I work with kids so it is safe to say that I am amazed everyday and in so many different ways. It is such an incredible and humbling experience to see the world through their eyes. Most of the kids that I work with are around 3 years old and they really do say the funniest things as they are trying their best to navigate their way through this crazy world of ours!

3 years ago I went to Costa Rica for a class with my university. I met some of the most fantastic people there. We stayed with host families and worked with in the community of the small town we were staying in. After the class a friend and I traveled around the country for a bit. Everyone was so warm everywhere we went. We were offered rides and people were quick to give us directions. I am grateful for everyone that was so awesome and feel fortunate to have met the friends that I met there and still keep in touch with to this day!

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I love meeting people from different walks of life. Sometimes it is in the challenges of being different that we find our greatest opportunity for growth. I also love meeting people that have similar interests such as yoga and learning about what brought them to this path in their lives!
