Overview
About Me
ABOUT ME
I am an independent, creative and vibrant woman who is passionate about traveling, languages, and culture. I am originally from Sunnyvale, California however I have lived in a number of cities in the San Francisco Bay Area and in San Luis Obispo along the Central Coast where I attended University.
Living in California, I grew up visiting National Parks, camping, hiking, snowboarding and going to the beach. I enjoy cooking, yoga, rock climbing, slack lining, painting, as well as making jewelry and pottery. Pretty much any activity that has to do with art and the outdoors. I am also very interested in natural health and healing , organic farming and cooking, and volunteering.
After obtaining my undergraduate degree in Marketing and Communication studies I moved to Burgos, Spain as a private English tutor, living with a Spanish family and teaching their children English. Situated along the Camino de Santiago, Burgos is a small, historic city in the providence of Castile and Leon--A city that I find more and more special everyday.
I love meeting new people, like minded or not, that challenge, alter, or fortify my perceptions and ways of thinking. I want to learn, teach, create, inspire, and radiate my positive energy to others. Traveling, I believe, provides me with that opportunity to broadening my experiences and knowledge about different cultures.
PHILOSOPHY
Embrace differences and change.
