About

Hi! I’m Jenia. Thank you for dropping in!

I teach Shiva Nata yoga, belay and boulder at Texas Rock Gym, and write about various stuff. Welcome to my virtual home!

I am a bit of a globe trotter, currently using Houston as my home base, after living a couple of months to a couple of years each in Minsk, Budapest, Geneva, Beijing, Boston, New York, and Dar es Salaam in my previous lives. I work as a localization project manager.

P.S. My name does not rhyme with Shania. The stress is on the first syllable, with “je” as in “Fabergé” and “nia” as in “piña colada”. That makes me ZHE-nya (ZHEN-ya works too, if it is easier for you to pronounce).
