About Me

CURRENT MISSION

meet n greet neat people in Denver!

ABOUT ME

I am Nelle from the beautiful Pacific Northwest. I love spending time outdoors, hiking, festivals and camping, but I also love dancing and living in the city. I am easy-going, honest, respectful, loving, caring, energetic, and adventurous. Good beer, good conversations, and good people make me happy! I have been a foreign exchange student in Spain, an English/yoga teacher/bilingual operator in Argentina, an English/Piano teacher in Panama, a dog and house sitter in New Zealand and a server in Eugene, Oregon and Leavenworth, Washington. I've volunteered in Bolivia, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Spain, France and Ireland. I spent the summer running a B&B in Mallorca, Spain and now live in Denver with a dashing man in a cute bungalow with our adorable dog named Aumlette (like the breakfast food but with a bit more class).

PHILOSOPHY

Eveything in the end will be okay, if it's not okay it's not the end.

I got into it because I was living with a friend who had used it. I've hosted a bunch, found people to practice yoga with and met great people around Portland,Buenos Aires and everywhere else I've used it. My experience has been amazing - I just love it!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I ran with the bulls in Pamplona, Spain unintentionally & had the privilege of hearing & watching the Perito Moreno glacier crack, crumble & crash!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach yoga, a bit of macrame, English, Spanish, how to travel on a budget in Central and South America. I'd like to learn anything that is offered. Knowledge is one of the most important gifts a person can give.

Let's share some laughs, some stories and a bottle of wine.
