From Brazil to Switzerland & adventures

About me

 

Hi, I’m Paty —
Brazilian-born, Swiss-raised, and deeply in love with travel, food, and stories that nourish the soul.
After a life-changing divorce, I left behind a corporate finance career and chose a new path — one filled with meaning, discovery, and freedom. Over the past decade, I’ve traveled to more than 30 countries, often with my two kids, and sometimes solo, to reconnect with myself.
Along the way, I found joy not only in new places, but in the kitchen — reconnecting with my Brazilian roots, experimenting with wholesome ingredients, and creating vibrant recipes inspired by the places that have captured my heart.
 
Today, I blend adventure, motherhood, and personal growth into a life (and a business) that celebrates simplicity, culture, and colorful cooking.
 
Welcome to my journey — I’m so happy to have you here.
