La Boheme: c'est moi.

(La Boheme: it's me.)

This is just a short intro of who I am. If you’d like to learn more about me, please visit my personal blog BohemianTranscendence.com on which I talk about philosophy, life, and, of course, myself.

I first claimed I could cook at age 19, just when I started doing regular strength. Of course, at that time, my idea of cooking was limited to knowing how to make a good lettuce salad and how to grill chicken. I was probably one of the few people on earth who didn’t mind eating the same meal over and over and over again. Things changed about two years later when I moved to the U.S. and discovered in cooking a way of preserving my culture. Preparing traditional dishes for dinner parties with friends or for the holidays was how I expressed part of myself as an individual. Without noticing, I slowly picked up more and more recipes and even began to (successfully) improvise with my own ones.

Nowadays, I continue my “studies” in the domain of cooking, always looking to combine healthy with tasty, while living what I describe as a modern bohemian lifestyle. And of course, I hope to share with you what I enjoy sharing so much with my friends.

Welcome to my BohemianKitchen.

PS: On the picture, I am at a friend's house, holding a delicious French Tarte Tatin, seconds before turning it upside down.

Today is a rainy, foggy day in San Fran. Our new kitten, Eva, (check her out here), is having fun by looking out the window and watching the rain drops fall. And I, my dear friends, am looking to make a comforting, yet quick lunch. Something which screams homemade, but doesn’t require too much time […]

Hello All, and Happy New Year! Yes, I know I’m over a week late. But I blame this on the jetlag and the ridiculous to-do list I’ve had after spending December in Iceland & France! Hopefully you’ll forgive me… especially after I warm you up with a good stew, right? See, here in San Fran, […]
