I'm Lucia. I was born by the sea in Mangalia, Romania. Today I live in Curtea de Argeș, my husband Paul-Cristian's hometown, with our one-year-old son, Andrei.
Eleven years ago I moved to the UK to build the life I thought was supposed to be successful. I studied accounting, worked in accounts, and travelled all over the country. Then, the same year I became pregnant, I was made redundant. I already knew I wanted to homeschool our son.
In 2025 Andrei was born and we came home to Romania. I gained skills abroad, but I came back with a husband and a child. When Andrei turned one, I started looking for a way to work from home.
That's when I found my mentors and watched the training. What clicked for me: this is a business that can be passed on to our children and grandchildren, with a company that has been around for more than 50 years. My husband works long, hard hours, just like my mentors once did. I wanted a different life for our family.
Now our days are stroller walks in the park and fresh food from the local market. Soon I'll be bringing my husband into the business too.
