After her studies in Dresden, Germany, and a first American marriage which ended in a divorce, she left America and began to travel in the East Asia. She went everywhere from Hawaii to China and was the very first Western woman to meet the Dalai Lama in the 1920s.

After a few marriages and an adventurous life, she lived in Paris where she wrote her autobiography and several novels and passed away in 1941.
