CURRENT MISSION

To live a fully expressed life through self-inquiry, awareness and deep play—and to help others do the same.

ABOUT ME

I believe in living passionately, fully and authentically. I love high heels and rock-climbing gear with equal fervor. I must remember to wipe the chain grease off my calves before running out the door in a strappy dress.

I have the New Yorker, Wired and Twine magazines on my coffee table. What is Twine? An independently published literary & lifestyle pub with an international subscriber base and 20,000+ readers (I am the founder, editor and manifestress).

I'm Level 1 certified with the Court of Master Sommeliers, and have written about wine, food, travel, community, salsa dancing (I used to be on a semi-professional salsa team) and eons more.

PHILOSOPHY

Intertwine play and purpose every day to unveil a more creative, fulfilling, expansive life. Use self-inquiry to find our own unique rhythm and express that into the world.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love to host when I can and love staying with locals, especially when we can all use bicycles and bike around their area together!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had amazing, trip-changing experiences using CS. I've stayed with people in Spain, France and all over the United States... and have hosted a number of people when I used to live by myself in a studio.
