Farewell 2016!

It’s almost painful but it’s time to say goodbye to 2016. I can only describe it with one word: adventurous. Last year the first thing I wrote on my list of what I wanted to achieve in 2016 was “to travel more”. I am writing this on my way to Barcelona, for my 15th trip of […]

Weekend in Turin: Christmas lights, food & friends!

2016 has been a very busy year in terms of traveling. Exciting times (I will recap all of it at the end of the year) but also tiring times. For this reason I wasn’t planning to travel much this December and instead I ended up with 4 flights booked. Yay. One of the not planned trips […]

I usually go to get some inspiration for our Christmas party and team building activities. This year I also had another opportunity: becoming a judge for the “Canapé Squaremeal cup”. […]

4 years and counting.

On a normal 17th of September 2012, I was on a plane heading to London thinking that after 6 months I would have been back home again. And here I am, 4 years later in my London living room. Who would have thought? If I think back, I see myself with short hair moving around […]
