About Me

*** Currently living in ASHEVILLE NC
I have not decided if i will host yet, I moved into a tiny studio. Send me a messages regardless

About me, I'm really laid back, down to earth , intuitive, always looking for a good laugh. I have a passion for music, especially anything eclectic. I live to travel ( 60+ countries) I cant sit still for too long without getting the travel bug. Have aspirations to travel the world, experience different cultures and make human connections along the way.

2024 Sound Healing in Asheville somaticsounds.net

2023 Left corp job for Nepal/India
2019 I started to work remotely from different cities. I started off in Denver and had planned for many other places when the pandemic hit. I settled in Asheville NC for now
