Greetings, I am Aruna Elentari, a nomadic yogi
I am Aruna Elentari, a nomad with passion for yoga, languages, science and technology. I was born in Kazakhstan back when it was one of the Soviet Republics. The collapse of the Soviet Union made a big impression on me and awoke a strong desire to explore other countries and cultures. I moved to the US at age eighteen and spent the next thirteen years in New York City, San Francisco and Silicon Valley, studying neuroscience at Columbia, working on Wall Street, organizing events for the Machine Intelligence Research Institute and teaching yoga. The last three years have been spent living in Sweden with my husband @hkjn. We are now embarking on our new adventure, starting in Barcelona!
I am here to learn from others and share my thoughts & experiences on yoga, health, learning languages, travel, virtual reality, programming and cryptocurrencies. I am looking forward to making new friends and contributing to this amazing community.
We are going to SteemFest in Lisbon start of November and we hope to meet many of you there!
