About Me

I'm a grad student at Naropa University studying clinical mental health with a concentration in contemplative psychotherapy and Buddhist psychology. My other passion is dance, all kinds of dance. Right now my training is focused in aerial dance. I work part-time offering Thai yoga & Ayurvedic bodywork and whatever else I come up with.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I enjoy meeting the locals of an area I'm traveling to. I love hearing people talk about their passions, I learn a lot this way, as well as sharing life stories. I enjoy sharing food. I also like to go out and explore the area- outdoor adventures, botanical gardens, art museums, nightlife, etc. Or just cozy up with a book somewhere.
