Gabriela Tranberg

My name is Gabriela Tranberg. I am a Portuguese married to a Norwegian and I live in the Tunes, Algarve. For many years, I was an international senior executive in the Banking Industry, and I worked in several countries in Africa, America, and Europe. I graduated from business school with a Master's in capital markets I know about stress, pressure, tight schedules, rush into planes, junk food, exhaustion, burnout, and illness. To cope, I learned that nobody can understand more about me, than myself and that I need to be in charge of my physical, emotional and spiritual body, so I studied. I graduated as a yoga teacher with Atmananda Studio in New York in 2007, as Primordial Sound Meditation Teacher and Perfect Health instructor both from the Chopra Center in California in 2010, as a Personal Development Coach and NLP practitioner from The Coaching Academy in London. I graduated as a Private Chef from the Leiths School of Food and Wine in 2019, as good food is important for a good life. In Norway, I fell in love with yarn and knitting. I learned to knit with my grandma when I was five or six years old, but then I forgot about it. Almost half a century later, I decided to give it a try, and it has been a source of joy since then. The repetitive movements are very relaxing, and the pleasure of working with colours and different types of yarn that create different structures helped me to be more engaged with my creative side. I find yoga and knitting a fantastic combination for relaxing and enjoying a tranquil life in the modern world.
