One Amazing Thing I've Done
I spent 2 years touring the US in my van. #vanlife Transporting fellow travelers, international students, dirty kids, and more than a few orphan puppies across the US in my rolling tinyhouse. My own little paradise in 400sqft
Teach, Learn, Share
Spent my college years fostering and rehabilitating abused dogs. Currently shadowing brilliant integrative medicine docs, learning all I can about alternative health, nutrition, detox pathways, etc in the context of Lyme-disease/MSIDS and infectious disease.
What I Can Share With Hosts
Petsitting services, dog psychology insights, stories from the road, pet advice, unofficial medical opinions, first aid (human or animal), gluten-free vegan recipes, usually a ride and/or a promise of future road trips :) Travel recommendations, cocktails,
