About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I am looking for a fun, adventurous, happy, like-minded person to stay with in or near Cancun in the Yucatan for two nights before Synthesis Festival =) !!!

ABOUT ME

I am a free spirited, curious, adventurous, intrepid traveler, and lover of life. I love meeting new people and immersing myself in different cultures. I have been traveling in India and Southeast Asia performing with my hoops and am now, currently teaching hoop dance classes in my hometown in California. I believe in the oneness and connection between all living things, and do my best to live lightly on the earth, spreading positive vibrations.

PHILOSOPHY

Always be impeccable with your word, don't take things personally, don't make assumptions, always do your best, stay skeptical and listen more than you speak.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to hula hoop like no other! I can also teach English, and a lil bit of french. I can teach you how to meditate too...I can share my wacky, beautiful utopian ideas (I am an aquarius after all) and my philosophies on life and love. I would love to learn how to salsa dance, how to cook food Yucatan style and really, really, want to learn to speak Spanish! =))))
