  • Description

    Greetings friends. I was born in the UK and raised in Canada, with South Indian ancestry. I've travelled, worked, studied, and lived all around the world during the last 25 years, from the Himalayas to the Amazon Jungle (where I lived with indigenous tribes). I also spent two years of intensive Kung Fu training at Wudang Mountain (China), and I've been teaching Tai Chi & Kung Fu since 2020. In 2023, I completed a 200-hour yoga certification from Rishikesh Nath Yogshala (Laxmanjhula, India). In my past, I have a Bachelor of Architecture degree (from the University of Toronto), have worked on building sites, family farms, corporate farms as a Spanish-speaking supervisor, and one year working as a set-designer and decorator at all-inclusive resort on Turks & Caicos Island.

    During this past year-and-a-half, I was a very active member of TrustedHouseSitters, spending beautiful time caring for canines and felines. It was always a special and loving time bonding with the animals, and I always returned the homes (to the homeowners) in an immaculate state and received more than 15 x ‘five star reviews’.

    I love trekking, camping, windsurfing, scuba diving (PADI certified divemaster), waterfalls, swimming, reading, writing (self-published author about living in the Amazon Jungle), painting, guitar, singing, mantra, and meditation.

    I’m also skillful with social media and content creation, from promoting myself as a fitness instructor and for my work as a self published author.
