About

Expert manifestor, dance partner and yogi. I once was a professional dancer on Broadway that loved to travel. Now, I combine both my love of travel and movement experiences.

Home airports

Somewhere between Miami and Cancun.

My travel style

I love finding hidden gems when traveling. I want to get the feeling of what local life is like as it pertains to food, music, art and culture. You can find me participating in local dance classes, wellness experiences and (of course) water activities.

Favorite hotels

Close to Los Muertos Beach, this colorful, stylish boutique sleep has just eight rooms and a small spa and plunge pool.

Four Seasons Resort Costa Rica at Peninsula Papagayo

Enjoy simple life at the Four Seasons with the canopy plunge pool suite, sunset views, and breakfast in bed.

Lip balm.

Two truths, one lie:

  1. I danced in the Folies-Bergère in Paris.

  2. I skydived in Madrid.

  3. I drank the water in Spain by accident, traveled to Paris and then threw up at the Louvre.
