Fotini had a successful background in the finance sector but her constant drive towards seeking authentic life has taken her away from the big city. Together with her partner-in-life, they left Thessaloniki, settled down to a farm in a small village and have not regretted it ever since. She loves literature, writing books, sculpture, artifacts creation using natural materials, looking after her exceptional home garden, and preparing her own food.
