My name is Kristina and I am in my early twenties on the fun journey of adulthood... which goes hand-in-hand with recently becoming a wine connoisseur. I am addicted to globetrotting and experiencing all the world has to offer - the good, the bad and the hilarious.
In my grad year I was diagnosed with Crohn's disease. To sum up what it is for those of you who don't know, Crohn's disease (as research suggests) is where my immune system attacks my body - in particular, in my colon (YUCK). This causes severe pain, inability to eat/digest food, and really inconveniently loud digestive noises. I've been trying to control my "flare-ups", which are the periods of time that my immune system so kindly decides to attack me, through diet. I eat mostly vegetarian and there are some random foods I need to stay away from, like chickpea's and canned beans. Going from a steak-lover to a vegetarian was tricky, but with the right recipes and patience I seem to be on the right track.
But by no means am I the best cook ever... I have been found guilty of setting the oven on fire as well as nearly starting a grease fire. I will, however, share the recipes I find taste delicious and are K-proof.
Aside from travelling, having an obnoxious bowel, and setting ovens on fire, I like to consider myself a creative person. For my creative outlet, I really enjoy drawing and designing, print making, and pottery. I'm still a little shy when it comes to sharing my creations so be patient! I will force myself to step out of my comfort zone to share with you guys.
If I've managed to tickle your interest or you'd like to get to know me better, head over to one of my blog posts and read-on!
