Description
Meet Svenja, a barefoot adventurer with the soul of a mermaid and the spirit of a barn-raised wild child. Currently splashing through life in Switzerland, she spends her days running wild with little ones as a hotel child care attendant—think snack-time sorceress meets glitter-fueled camp counselor.
Born with ocean water in her veins and hay in her hair, she’s been riding since she was a kid and would happily trade glass slippers for muddy boots any day. Farm work? Gardening? Bring it on. She’s never afraid to get her hands dirty—especially if it involves planting something, feeding animals, or chasing runaway chickens or cows.
She dreams of one day mastering surfing (and looking cool doing it), but for now, she’s joyfully wiping out with style and laughing all the way to shore. When not wave-hunting, she’s skating, hiking, snorkeling (her happy place is definitely underwater) or off on horseback, exploring the world with wind in her hair and curiosity in her pockets.
Creativity follows her everywhere—whether she’s building something out of scrap wood, DIY-ing beds, flower pots or fences, or framing the perfect photo of a squirrel mid-snack. Photography is her way of capturing the quiet magic of the world, especially the wild and whiskered kind—animals are her forever favorites.
Every new country is an animal-spotting safari, every walk is a nature documentary waiting to happen, and every day is a chance to learn something weird, wild, or wonderfully unexpected.
In short? She’s a playful mix of mermaid, mountain goat, and mischief-maker—writing her own adventure story, one muddy footprint and salty splash at a time.
