About Me

Born in Switzerland, I spent the last 7 years in Canada where I graduated from anthropology at the University of Montreal and from a graduate program in Community Economic Development at Concordia University. This last year, I decided to move back to my home country with my Canadian husband to nurture my Swiss roots and get closer to Europe.

I also recently started a school to become a herbologist. Learning about medicinal plants, how to grow , transform and use them is one of my greatest passions.

My husband Chris and I are enthusiastic, easy-going and respectful people. We both love traveling, backpacking, camping, kayaking, gardening and meeting new people. Whenever we can, we love to go hiking in nature or discover vibrant cities.

We are both looking forward to meeting you!
