About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To go where I feel called to be

ABOUT ME

I love to travel and play host to people who enjoy the same. I have lived all over the United States including Colorado, Texas, Virginia, Tennessee, Georgia, and New York City. But Ukraine is my first experience living abroad and I am loving every minute of it!

PHILOSOPHY

It's the journey - not the destination.

I have been watching this website for years, but never had space to offer. Unfortunately (for surfers, not for me!) I live with a host family so I cannot offer space for now. But, I am happy to show you around the lovely town of Perechyn and the city of Uzhgorod!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

how do I choose just one?! standing above the fog of the Grand Canyon - otherworldly; the stillness of Khotyn fortress as it overlooks the water (Ukraine); standing in the cool water of a river high in the mountains of Jamaica while little girls braided my hair; waking in the Garden of the Gods to a blanket of snow on my tent; traversing the streets of ancient Ephesus where so many have walked before me
