  • Description

    I like being outdoors, cooking, reading, hiking, and learning. I love art (especially music and theatre). I want to travel to see different ways of life. I'm an optimistic person who has a lot of energy and is down to do whatever adventure presents itself. I like to have a clean and organized space and chatting with others.
    I’m 5 ft, so really I’m perfect size for any accommodation, I was born to be travel size :)

    I have also graduated with a bachelor's degree in cultural anthropology and sustainability ( I am very interested in NGOs and helping communities fight for food sovereignty).

    I am traveling across Europe with my sister right now, and am aiming to land in South America in February, so I can practice my almost non existent Spanish.

    I'm from Washington State, where it rains most days of the year and you pray for sunshine. I have spent the last four years living in Hawaii on the northshore of Oahu. In hawaii I lived in a very small town, similar to my hometown. I like being far away from daily hussle and consumerism.

    I grew up raising pigs and chickens and lived on a very small scale farm. I think it's fun to venture into the city every once in a while, but mostly I like to be surrounded by nature.

    I have worked a lot with food (and coffee) and have done community service in helping bring food to communities in need. I like to plant food, harvest and cook it, and enjoy learning and teaching others about living from the land.

  • More details about your skills

    I have a bachelor's degree in Cultural anthropology and sustainability. My focus in school was learning how to bring communities and individuals food sovereignty through the process of planting and cooking with their cultures native foods.

    I have done a lot of volunteer work in this area, learning permaculture planting of native plants (in Hawaii). And a lot of volunteer in giving food to those in need within my community.

    I have minors in theater, fundamental languages, and intercultural peacebuilding.
    I have a lot of experience cooking and baking, with it being a passion of mine as well as working in kitchens and bakeries for over 5 years.
    I have worked as a barista for over a year, and loved it! I got to meet so many people in my community and had a never ending supply of coffee.
    I know a beginner level of Spanish and am a native English speaker.
    I have experience working in tourism in the state of hawaii.

    I love music, theater, and anything artistic. I have done theater, mostly working behind the scenes on sets, for years, working as stage manager.
    I like cleaning, organizing and managing things.
