about me
My name is Petra and I am many things, but curious above all.
I come from Slovenia, a small chicken-shaped European country, and still believe in dragons and goodness. I’m a mechanical engineer by education and a passionate explorer by nature, so I am always traveling and trying out something new.
When I am not working or traveling, I like to adventure in the kitchen, learn new languages and skills and read as many books as possible. I get grumpy when I haven’t been fed enough cheese, I prefer winter to summer, my feet are always cold and I like to walk everywhere. I am also quite clumsy, opinionated and my interests are, as this blog clearly shows, erratic.
about my blog
Erratic Engineeress started out as a travel blog in 2019 when I was a student living abroad, but is now my creative outlet for everything. I’ve learned to go with flow, rely on informed intuition and embrace change as the only constant, so this blog also changes as I grow. You will find travel posts, think pieces, recipes, sustainability-themed posts, book recommendations and product reviews, geek stuff and just about everything else. I invite you to share in whatever catches your interest and connect with me in the comments below the blog posts.
I want to inspire you (and myself) to be more spontaneous and more consciously slow; to explore more, both abroad and at home, and consider your impact on the world while you do it. I hope this blog will help you discover something new & I look forward to meeting you!
