About Me

ABOUT ME

My own perception of Anna is obviously a bit skewed, so I will try to make it as objectively as possible.
Russian-looking French-Swiss girl, romantically grounded engineer, nostalgic optimist, rooted traveler, I want to conquer the world pacifically, go through the seven seas, meet more amazing people. I am now travelling 3 months in India before starting a Phd in Switzerland.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

scuba diving in the Andaman islands, feeling the aura of the Dalai Lama, waking up at 2:30 am to face the Kachenzonga (8500m himalaya) rising from the starry sky, falling in a sloppy ravine, sweating 24/24 in the burning Mai sun of Chennai, making a 800km bicycle trip along the Atlantic Ocean
