Research-Fueled, Wellness-Centered Travel
Bespoke trips inspired by ancient cities and real scholarship—designed with movement, recovery, and meaning in mind.
I’m Kristina—travel designer, yoga teacher, and a doctoral-bound researcher in classical archaeology. I build context-rich journeys to the ancient world (and beyond) that respect local heritage, fit your pace, and leave you restored.
Design pillars: Ethical Heritage • Mindful Pace • Nourishing Food • Smart Budgets
Travel that goes deeper.
The Lostness Framework
My original research model for understanding how places and stories become “lost”—and how we remember them. The framework maps five stages (Trigger, Mechanic, Signals, Afterlives, Modern Memory) so your journey engages sites with context, care, and accuracy.
