Get to know me better
Once you accept and understand yourself, you do things for the right reasons, rather than being fuelled by your insecurities
Travelling has always been a part of me, since i was a toddler and my family often moved out because of their job, but only thanks to this innate passion for exploring, visiting and learning that i've become what i am now. Trips across EU and outside brought to meet different people, different cultures and i've picked something from them each time.
My cuisine is a simple reflection of this beautiful experience.

More about me
For me, cooking is...
Dedication, determination, passion, art.
I learned to cook at...
wherever i went i stole knowledge from whom stood before me.
A cooking secret...
no secrets, just genuine love.
