I recently moved to California after living in a Colorado ski town for 10 years. I'm laid back and kind, love the ocean and the mountains, nature... the simple things. I'm a yoga instructor and a doula, both things that bring me joy. I love all kinds of music and adventure.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Some of the best times I have had while traveling have been with travelers that I meet along the way! While I can certainly enjoy a posh resort and spa, I prefer to meet the locals and be in the culture I'm visiting as opposed to just look at it. I've found that the best adventures and best local stories and tips can only be found when you take the road less traveled.

Interests

Being outside! Hiking, skiing, Yoga, paddling, swimming, boating, fishing, sunsets, campfires, flip-flops, reading, a cold beer after a long day, organic food, good conversation, live music, dancing, my two black labs Holden and Piper.

Music, Movies, and Books

The blues, bluegrass, reggae... anything with soul. I love to boogie to the Grateful Dead.

I read a lot of books about Yogic philosophy and tales of wild adventure.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I help families deliver their babies, which is more and more amazing every time!

An amazing recent adventure in my travels was running around naked on an Alaskan island, dipping into mud pots and hot springs. It was mystical!
