Britt Quinn

Britt Quinn hails from sunny San Diego, California—but her story doesn’t stop there. At just 21, she packed her bags, set off for a study abroad adventure, and hasn’t looked back since. For 15 years, Britt crisscrossed the globe, carving out a life filled with hiking, sailing, teaching yoga, snowboarding, surfing, and chasing adventure.

These days, she calls two wildly different corners of the world home. Most of the year, Britt plants her roots in a quiet beach town in Southern Nicaragua, where she pours her energy into teaching yoga, hosting retreats, and coordinating transformative events. When winter rolls around, she trades sand for snow and heads to Sainte Foy in the French Alps, where she splits her time between yoga classes, event hosting, and epic splitboarding missions.

This year, Britt’s adventures take her to Turkey, where she’ll be looking after a crew of adrenaline-seeking kindred spirits who share her passion for thrill, growth, and exploration.

A true adrenaline junkie with an insatiable appetite for growth, Britt thrives on adventure, connection, and creating unforgettable experiences. She’s all about bringing people together from every corner of the globe and believes that life’s magic happens when you ditch comfort, take risks, and dive headfirst into the unknown.
