You don't lose your bearings because you made the wrong choice. You lose them because you made a real one.

Daria Melnik, intercultural coach

I'm Daria Melnik — and I've lived the expat story twice over: once as the one who moves, once as the one who follows.

That fall is what brought me here. After an MBA at Luiss Business School and more than fifteen years in marketing, telecom and tech, I trained as an intercultural coach (RNCP level 6) to turn what I lived through — and what I learn from the people I coach — into a method.

I coach in English, French, Italian and Russian, on the ground in Paris and online.
