I’m so happy you are here! For those of you who have already been following along, you know that this blog has been a long time in the making. My intention here is to share my passion for living holistically, traveling the world, and creating fun, nourishing recipes in the kitchen. I hope that sharing my journey and thoughts here will inspire you to live a vibrant life and explore the world.  

To document where I am at this moment in my journey at the time of this post: I’m currently active duty military (US Navy) on an exchange tour in Germany – seriously a dream come true for me. I wake up so grateful for this opportunity every day. While I love serving my country and the Navy has provided me with incredible opportunities to lead, grow and explore the world, I feel it deep in my core that my true calling, my true mission on this planet lies elsewhere. I plan on making a full career transition at the end of 2020 into the exciting and developing realm of holistic health and wellness.  

I have recently enrolled in the Institute of Integrative Nutrition to become a certified holistic health coach (class of March 2019). My (loose) plan is to begin a master’s degree in Integrative Health Studies fall semester of 2021 at the California Institute of Integral Studies in SF. There is also a bee keeping certification course I have my eye on in Hawaii 😉

These days I am often living out of a suitcase and happily traveling around Europe, both for work and for fun, while also enjoying the peaceful seaside town of Kiel, Germany, where I am currently living. I could not be more excited to embark on this blogging journey with you all.
