hello friends

i realize hosts have a lotta profiles to peruse, so in brief :))

i was born in the usa to a family of artists, but i never felt at home in my country... i'd say i'm a europhile :) .....always wanted to live anywhere but usa! i was happiest when i was around an international crowd or when i would hear foreign languages spoken around me. i was made for the expat and volunteer life, i guess :) ....i 've traveled extensively , been to 16 countries .. and counting! currently living in ecuador , 4 years.

i enjoy time spent with animals; interspecies friendship is important to me, swimming, hiking, bicycling, sunbathing, lying under a tree, the sounds of water in a creekbed, wind in the trees, crickets, birds ..... being in silence in nature is just about the best thing in life, for me. simple pleasures.

also enjoy jigsaw puzzles, board games, classical & flute music, vibrant conversation/ exchange of perspectives, deep listening, genuine human emotional connection.

i relish talking about the " metaphysical " and the deeper causal level. im not too keen on technology, or digital pursuits.

some beings i highly esteem include: oraclegirl.org, {jacqueline fay hobbs}, teal swan, massanobu fukuoka, shere hite, dr tom cowan, andreas moritz, penelope smith, and the beauty, generosity and resillience of our mother earth's body.

Que habilidades tienes?

on and off since 2019, i've:
volunteered at a bio/organic farm in Cahors, France, where I helped out weeding, planting, and selling at market. I was a guide at a nature park in Rethymno, Crete where I taught tourists about the native plants like the castor oil and carob tree. In Costa Rica, I fed and cleaned the living quarters of 59 chickens, walked and fed the dogs, helped prepare raw vegan meals, and tidied the house. At a farm animal sanctuary in New York, I shoveled cow dung. i rescued injured pigeons in Central Park. I fed and looked after cows, donkeys, goats , horses and injured cats at a sanctuary in bergerac, france. i also mowed the lawn, shoveled hay and mucked out the stables. in ecuador, i taught english and served as a mentor in a " move with balance" class for elders . staying in a rural village in rajasthan, india, i helped with domestic chores, laundry and weeding

i have experience as a receptionist in new york city and i have taught english online.

i painted a birdcage in costa rica and contributed to a large mural in ecuador.

i wrote and taught my own interspecies communication workshop involving " feminine science" in costa rica .

i possess both a college degree in art history and a tefl certificate to teach english.

by volunteering to write book reviews - which became quite popular - for our small english library in ecuador, i discovered that im naturally gifted at this... memoir and biography are my favorites to review.

i have an inborn knack for beautifying living spaces... just in my bones, i guess.... seem to do it unconsciously in whatever surroundings i find myself....

oddly enough, i love to speak in public! i wrote two hour-long presentations , one describing my curious encounters with insects :) .. and the other, a philosophical perspective, of an ontological bent....
