Dami Roelse is a certified life coach and author. Born and raised in Holland, Dami has traveled the world extensively, lived on different continents and studied with different spiritual teachers. Dami has learned to use her travel as an inspiration for living. Her new memoir "Fly Free" takes the reader to a remote destination in Ladakh on the border with China and is sprinkled with flashbacks of her travels in Afghanistan, India and Nepal, where she met Goenka, Neem Karoli Baba and Ram Dass. 
Dami has used her passion for long distance hiking and backpacking as a means to deepen her connection with nature and the universe. Her inner spiritual journey has evolved right along with her outer journey. Dami’s first book, “Walking Gone Wild, How to Lose your Age on the trail”, is a call to women in the third phase of life to find freedom and inner peace as they walk in nature. Dami makes her home in Ashland, Oregon, a close knit community of vibrant, engaged and socially responsible people. There she writes, enjoys the fruits of her garden, kayaks on nearby lakes and hikes in the Ashland hills.
