About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Speak Spanish. Meet new people in Mexico.

ABOUT ME

I'll be in Mexico Dec. 4-Jan. 16, hoping to improve my Spanish and spend time with locals to get to know the country through your eyes. I am interested in local politics, food systems, community living, dancing, acroyoga and outdoor adventures. In the U.S., I advocate for policies that support sustainable farmers. I am lucky to work remote from my computer.

I'll be working during the week days between Dec. 6-17 and Jan 3-14.
Between Dec. 18- Jan. 2, I'm a free bird and would love to explore, camp, and socialize.
