CURRENT MISSION

To live. To Laugh. To dance. To learn. To think. To be inspired. And to write it all down:)

(And also to swim with Orcas:)

ABOUT ME

I like to laugh... and I do a lot of it. I like to do things that surprise myself. I like to hear people speak their native languages. I like to see people from different countries and cultures transcend the barriers of language and culture. I can sit in a coffee shop all day and watch life happen.

PHILOSOPHY

No worries!
Be natural!
Be compassionate!
Open your mind!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've seen some beautiful gestures of compassion and I've been lucky enough to get to take care of kids every day.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have a lot to learn... and I'm down for anything!!!

One thing I can say is my best travels have happened by accident... with no planning. I don't mind untangling my travel as I go!

I think it's important to share love everywhere you go, and to try and do it freely, without fear.
