My Experience in The USA

Between Mountains and Mesas. My adult life has been in Colorado moving between mountain towns that have their own charm – Steamboat, Boulder, Vail, Crested Butte and the quiet backcountry of Irwin. Life in Colorado has been defined by seasons, and snow-covered peaks. With my family in Arizona, I’ve made the road between the two states a familiar friend. Driving through Monument Valley, I’ve watched the sun cast long shadows over ancient sandstone towers. Detours through Sedona with it’s mystical red rocks and otherwordly energy, and Payson, an oasis in the desert. I’ve lived in Tesuque, NM where the culture is woven into everyday life. These Pueblos represent the oldest cultures in North America. Tesuque is a small but culturally rich village north of Sante Fe. It’s a blend of Native heritage, historic adobe charm, and artistic spirit. I’ve spent much time taking my fair share of turquoise doors, ristra chili strands and historic churches.
