About the host
Hosted by Curiteanu Alcmena
Daniela is the lady with the fertile land for our seed - the village of Pestera & Akasha as we know it today. For over 20 years Daniela lived in London where she has a successful business analyst career and her own business consultancy practice but in the back of her mind her passion lied in healthy cooking & sourcing organic fresh produce. Because of her meticulous attention to detail, the retreat runs like clockwork with a team of highly dedicated people & motivates all of us to smile more often.
