Hi, I’m Ribana. I was born and raised in Romania. A beautiful country with a lot of problems. After I’ve met my husband, I went to live in Italy, a wonderful country that went deep into my heart.
I am a nutritionist, pastry chef, recipe developer, food writer, and ultimately a passionate home cook. I curate and develop recipes that are high on nutrition. I develop and test cost effective, nutritious meals using quality ingredients to help people improve their everyday eating experiences.
I love Mediterranean cuisine and I am an advocate of using fresh, hyper local, and seasonal produce. I am dedicated to helping people better understand nutrition and have a healthier relationship with their food. I am on a mission to help spread the real food message to as many people as possible through my blog Popsicle Society. My food philosophy is:
“Eat a little bit of everything.”
Some years back, we left our home, our family, our full-time jobs, we left everything behind and traveled more than 10,000 km away in a city where we did not know anyone, without a job, without a home, only us.
After over a decade of calling Singapore home, we’ve recently made the bold decision to embark on a new chapter in Thailand. This significant move marks not just a change in scenery but a wholehearted leap into a new adventure. Alongside this, we’ve stepped away from our conventional careers, choosing instead to fully commit to our passion for marketing. Our journey ahead is filled with both excitement and the promise of fresh opportunities as we dive into this venture with all our energy and dedication.
I love traveling, cooking, and enjoying this beautiful nature. We have a wonderful world.
Life is not always easy, but it gives us the opportunity. It is a continuous experience, a journey with no map and no rules.
We’ve engaged in this never-ending adventure! Let’s enjoy the trip and see where it will take us.
