Profile details
About
A heartsy nomad, Bay-coastal (SF and Chesapeake Bay) and currently building a casa in Baja around a 100 year old cactus. I am creative – playwright, performer, photographer – and momma to a lovely lady and a badass cat.
Travel style
I have a system called the heart of travel. I love places that have HEART – homey, eco-friendly, artistic, relaxing and rejuvenating, and tasty. I find heart wherever I go because traveling keeps me young at heart!
