Heart of a Hippie, Soul of a Gypsy, Spirit of a Mermaid
I moved to Mexico with 5 suitcases, a dog and a dream.
In 2017, I decided life needed to change, but wasn't quite sure how. Then in June of that year, I visited Puerto Vallarta for the first time and never looked back.
September 1st 2018, I sold my house in Portland, Oregon and by September 30th I sold everything in it. On October 1st, I bought a one-way first class ticket for me and my dog Gracie to a new life in Mexico.
Once here, I watched, I learned and I listened to what the community wanted and needed. So, on November 2nd 2019, I opened the doors, welcoming the community into The Living Room. A Bookstore & Cafe in the heart of the Marina. Quickly it became the favorite gathering space for the locals, expats, snowbirds and tourist.
Then in March 2020 the world was struck with a sweeping pandemic and my fledgling little store had to temporarily close. But that isn't the end of this story. There are many chapters left to be written. The heart of a hippie, soul of a gypsy and the spirit of a mermaid within me asks...What else is possible?
Follow me on my journey to find out....
