Hi! I've been an athlete my entire life and yoga has always been the perfect complement to my training no matter what sport I was in. Soccer, skiing, dancing, climbing; yoga has always been a constant and a big contributor to my successes. I've traveled the world making wine, coaching skiing and learning everything in between. Now I am on a mission to bring yoga and a healthy active lifestyle to all athletes (and weekend warriors) out there with a bit of travel and culture mixed in. Basically spreading health and happiness for mind, body and culture.

I've got about 756 photos of how INCREDIBLE the plants are here. Here is just a little taste. #plantlady #guatemala

And here is some spam of the most perfect sweet baby angel, learning how to be the goodest girl! I love her so much! (Yes, she is very pretty, but she also knows that she is worth so much more than just her looks)

Garden tour!

Nature is neat.

A lunchbreak well spent 😊 I am so thankful to have such amazing tools for my overall health: mind, body and soul.

Handstands in the Badlands.... And a few other things...

Before and after! It's definitely not finished yet but it's a start and I'm super happy with it. If you ever need someone to dig up the root ball of an old Holly bush, do NOT call me. 😂

Keto Cauliflower Pesto Pizza

I’m just going to skip right to what you need to know: 90g of Sharp Cheddar cheese, thickly grated (you can really sub this with any cheese using a healthier substitute for my pesto, you can always use Parmesan which is the classic.)3 Tbsp Olive oil (This is where a lot of the fat comes from, if you want to knock it down a bit you can use only 1 or 2, just decrease the lemon juice and nutritional yeast a little bit) , I used about an entire bag of cheddar cheese (again you can decrease total Cal/fat of this recipe if you use a little less) and some German summer sausage. Throw all of the ingredients (dandelion greens, 40g of the walnuts, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, olive oil and a little salt and pepper) except about 15g of walnuts into the food processor and mix until you have a nice creamy consistency.

Ideas to Avoid Boredom At Home During Quarantine

If you really need help with scheduling and prefer to use technology to stay accountable, there are a lot of resources online. Check out my page Free Yoga Videos for some at home workouts and if you need a little more, contact me to set up a virtual class. If you need some real inspiration to get moving, Chris Hemsworth has a free trial workout routine right now; I know I wouldn’t have a problem exercising with him for a while. Skype, Zoom (best video quality), Houseparty, Google Hangouts, Facebook Messenger; these are just a few of the free programs that you can use to virtually hang out with friends that also have some extra time on their hands.

Adventures in South America: Tips and Tricks

There are a lot of travel blogs out there (especially for the solo female traveler, which I never realized we were a thing until people started talking about it recently…); Google the word “Peru” and you’ll be able to find the majority of the information included below. Every tour guide is different and brings a different energy to a tour so this point is hard to generalize but there seemed to be a higher percentage of tour guides that really didn’t care very much and just did the bare minimum to finish the activity. I will note that some tour guides told me that as rainy season goes on it does get a bit worse but if you go in the beginning or end of the season it will most likely not be a big part of your trip ( It cost $180 USD for the night when the average price I was paying for a hotel was about $25-40 USD for an average hotel room, $5-12 USD for hostel accommodation.

The Next Chapter

I used to work a winter in Lake Tahoe, CA then go to New Zealand and work a harvest and another winter, then back to California for another harvest. It seems insane to me that my 4 year degree, much of which I spent playing soccer and socializing, holds extremely more weight to an employer than my 5 years of living in different countries with only a suitcase and enough money to get to the next place. Skis (4 pairs of skis and two pairs of boots), climbing equipment, SUP, backcountry skiing set up, ultra-light backpacking set up, slackline, soccer ball, trampoline, mountain bike, disc golf, 4 yoga mats, indo board, weights, lots of sizes of backpacks…. I want to share what I learn from always trying new things and offer some tips to anyone who needs a little change in life!
