About Roxana
A rock/chalk/brushing addict and occasionally a training freak (when she projects), Roxana is a Romanian climber who spends her rest days as a writer and translator for the outdoors industry.
Currently based in the French mountains, she enjoys spending time in nature climbing, doing yoga, and skiing.
Roxana never practiced any sport until her 20s, not even the basics in school - she hated sports and it wasn't until the end of 2013 when she discovered climbing, that she fell in love with movement.
