These are weird, difficult times for us all and as many of my favorite coffee shops in Edinburgh are still delivering / open for take-away, I might post about that in order to support them in the following days. But before I do that, I am going to dedicate this post to a heart-warming phenomenon … More Virtual classes, virtual community
My mom comes from a lineage of intellectuals, her parents were both educated and educators, and while activities of sharpening the mind were very much encouraged in her house, physical activity was non-existent. This is how my mom discovered, for the first time in her life, at the tender age of 32, after earning her … More Why self-kindness is more important than a handstand press

It’s pretty funny that the two main topics in this blog are food (often times sweets) and fitness, but this combination is actually very indicative of my lifestyle. As I told you previously, I am a dancer and a dance, Pilates and Aerial yoga teacher. I live a very active life, training approximately 15 hours … More Work hard, play hard
