HOMEMADE LEMONADE

Welcome to the world of Nikoza. A microcosm of my travels, life experiences, and so much more. I'm Niki, a passionate Greek married to Alex, a Serbian basketball player and a proud Rottweiler mama. Which makes for an interesting combination, to say the least. There is never a dull moment in our lives, since we are always on the go. I have a passion for fashion, whether it's a designer handbag or something that I've picked up in a flea market. Food always puts a smile on my face. Experimenting in the kitchen is one of the things I do best. Sometimes it's hit and run, but most of the times I nail it. I used to have a fashion column in a magazine 4 years ago, but it got to a point where it wasn't enough for me. I don't do things half heartedly. So, I wanted to be able to share what truly made me happy and fulfilled. Hence the idea of this blog was born. It took me a while to figure out exactly how I wanted to do it. Because every blog I've ever read has been unrealistic, in terms of fashion, travelling and lifestyle. Being on a budget doesn't necessarily mean you need to sacrifice quality. I want you to relate to Nikoza and be able to experience the things I suggest whether it's a simple recipe, a travel destination or quick tips on hair and make up. Keep your seatbelts fastened 'cause it's gonna be quite a journey!
