About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Blowing in the wind, opening my heart to LOVE, rewilding.

ABOUT ME

I'm 23, been WWOOFing on the west coast for the last 6 months and digging my travels. I've seen so many beautiful things on this journey and am filled with gratitude to be living this life. Each lesson is a blessing and gift to share. My traveling companion is Toby, a 12 year old daschund-corgi pup.

I'm a forager of nature's glorious abundance. I celebrate the wild no matter where I am! I believe in simplicity, in love, in grand mysteries, and in gift exchanges.

PHILOSOPHY

look to nature for the answer
