Description

Hello! I am a long time traveler and I have been living outside of the US since April 2022. I have mostly traveled in Central America and Southeast Asia but I have also been to parts of South America, Europe, and a little bit of Africa. 🌎

I speak some Spanish and look forward to improving those skills. I finished getting my TEFL certification but have not done any formal teaching. Personally my favorite kind of language exchange is going on adventures and helping friends with their English while they help me with my Spanish (or whatever other language). 👩🏼‍🏫

I have many years of experience working in the service industry in the US and I am great at customer service. I am a great waitress and a kickass bartender. I am very friendly and I am a quick learner. I have also done a bit of bar management and guest house management. 💁🏼‍♀️

I like to make art. I've painted a few basic murals and I'm very good at making signs or whiteboards. Also I can do interior/exterior painting fairly well. 🎨

I love animals. If you have animals at your property, we will probably get along well. I have a ton of dog sitting experience and I am always happy about pup snuggles. 🐾

I love plants. Before I quit my life in the US, my house was basically a jungle. If you need someone to repot your houseplants or bring them back to life, I'm your girl. I'm pretty good with outdoor plants too. I've got a green thumb. 🌿

I've been fire dancing for a long time. I always travel with my fire poi and my hula hoop. The hardest part about this seems to be finding fuel... If I can find fuel, I will happily put on a show or give a lesson! 🔥

Yoga is my passion. I completed a 200 hr Hatha teacher training is Rishikesh, India in October 2016. I then returned to India, this time to Goa, is October 2022 to complete a 300 hr Ashtanga training. I have been teaching as much as possible since. I love teaching Vinyasa, Ashtanga, and Pranayama. 🧘🏼‍♀️

I have had great luck with workaway and I am always keen to try and learn new things. Some of my favorites have been…

Working as tour guide for a hostel in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.
Bartending at a big party hostel in Lago de Atitlan, Guatemala.
Teaching yoga and pranayama at a yoga school in Goa, India.
Teaching yoga and running boat tours on an island in Cambodia.
Teaching yoga at a jungle resort in Bocas del Toro, Panama.
