I’ve been welcoming guests to my home since 2017 and have a passion for meeting new people from all walks of life. I find joy in tending to my garden, where I spend a good amount of time nurturing edible and medicinal plants and enjoying the beauty of nature right in my backyard. Additionally, I’m an avid hiker and walker, frequently exploring the scenic trails and landscapes San Diego has to offer. Reading is another one of my favorite pastimes, allowing me to dive into different worlds and perspectives through books. I believe in creating a warm and welcoming space for my guests, aiming to make their stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. I’m looking forward to hosting you and sharing insights into the local area, from hidden gems in nature to the best spots for a good read outdoors.
