I'm someone who gets excited about everything a but too much. I always like to try something new!.. especially trying many "random" sports out. I love to cook and especially for many people. I used to host weekly Sunday dinners to bring friends and flatmates together for the end of the week and even created a small breakfast club for a short while. And now I have a dinner club and potentially a pop-up restaurant in Zürich(!!). So I really love food.

I'm quiete active and prefer a more nature-heavy style of travel like hiking, camping, road trips, and climbing. That coupled with learning about the places' culture and, of course, food. Since leaving home 7 years ago I have visited some culturally rich places including India, Taiwan, Indonesia, Mongolia, and have even rediscovered my Cossack roots in Ukraine.

Recently I fell back in love with people and storytelling. I follow, have attended and have even hosted storyslams after being inspired by TheMoth. I simply love learning about peoples "stories" and getting to share some of my own.

I could keep writing more but I'll save the rest in person :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I backpacked through Mongolia with a rag tag group of people without a phone or map using only an outdated lonely planet guide. I also hitchedhiked on an airplane from Edinburgh to Paris wearing a onesie. (It was a charity race)
