ABOUT THE JOURNEY

Each crystal and stone I gather holds the essence of the lands I’ve wandered—their energy, their stories, their soul. With these sacred treasures, I create handmade spiritual jewelry, weaving the spirit of my travels into every piece. My bohemian style is a dance of cultures, a reflection of the world’s beauty seen through my journeying heart.

AUSTRALIAN OPAL MINE

Back in 2017, I had one of the most incredible journeys discovering the land down under.  This is where it all begins: my first solo travel, my passion for jewellery making, and the search for particular stones. Special thanks to all the fantastic people I met on the road who inspired me and challenged me every day.

 In the middle of the outback in a town called Lightning Ridge, we found this Opal mine. In the evening, we ended up in the oldest pub in New South Wales and found ourselves surrounded by miners interested in our findings. After a beautiful evening, we were invited to camp in the mine and the next day to go down to the mine to discover the real treasure ...

EGYPT CRYSTAL MOUNTAIN

In 2018, I journeyed to the eastern part of the Sahara Desert in Egypt, known as the breathtaking White Desert. One of the most unforgettable stops was the Crystal Mountain—one of the rarest mountains in the world, shimmering with an abundance of crystals. Among its wonders, you can find at least 12 different types of Quartz and Calcite, each radiating its own unique energy. I felt like a child on Christmas morning, surrounded by nature’s most dazzling treasures.

After an adventurous day, we camped with the desert Bedouins, sharing stories over wine, gazing at the endless stars, and hoping to catch a glimpse of the elusive nocturnal foxes.

Of course, no journey to Egypt would be complete without visiting Cairo and Giza—vibrant, rich with history, alive with the scent of spices, and filled with the mesmerizing energy of bustling bazaars.

COSTA RICA - VULCANIC LAND

In 2019, I embarked on a trek to Irazú Volcano, the highest active volcano in Costa Rica at 3,432 meters. Its summit holds several craters, including Diego de la Haya, a striking green crater lake that changes in depth and hue. On a clear day, the view from the top is truly magical—you can see both the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans stretching into the horizon.

Costa Rica is also home to stunning volcanic beaches, where nature shapes the most beautiful stones and rocks. Of course, I couldn’t resist collecting these unique treasures, later transforming them into one-of-a-kind necklaces infused with the raw energy of the earth.

INDIA - THE SPIRITUAL LAND

During my journey through India, I immersed myself in the rich history and culture of the land, which deeply influenced my work. One of the highlights was attending a silversmithing class, where I learned new techniques that allowed me to elevate the style of my jewelry. The intricate artistry I encountered there brought a fresh perspective to my craft, blending tradition with my unique vision.

As I traveled through India, I collected stones, crystals, and other treasures from its diverse landscapes, each piece carrying the essence of the land. These natural wonders are now woven into my jewelry, capturing the spirit of India’s timeless beauty.
