If you enjoy nature adventures with a bit of unique culture sprinkled in, you’ve come to the right place.

My name is Margarita, and I am a woman on a mission. My quest is to see all 40 species of wild cats in their natural habitat. A couple of years ago, I upped the ante and started a PhD in an attempt to unravel the mystery of wild cats’ charisma. I am also fascinated by medieval towns and Renaissance art.
