About Roo

I’m Roo, Papa’s little girl turned powerhouse, raised to believe I could be anyone and do anything. A tomboy who once chalk-fought with the boys and later stood on stage in a Bollywood movie (a flop, but still fabulous). An adventurer who bungee-jumped in -5C New Zealand air, backpacked through Scotland, and climbed 14,000 ft peaks just to see how far stubbornness could take me. An engineer who became a director, a dreamer who picked up a Viking husband on a backpacking trip, and now, the woman running an F45 studio where transformation happens daily. Through it all, one truth has stuck: life is messy, mischievous, and magnificent and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Glimpses from the Journey!

What you see in these frames, the gear, the smiles, and the looming peaks, is just the tip of the iceberg. Beneath the surface lay -19°C nights, lungs fighting for 50% oxygen, and a 70km grind that tested every ounce of our grit. These glimpses capture the moments where the body begged to surrender but the mind refused to look back. From the swaying suspension bridges to the 'teahouse shock' of Gorakshep, every image is a permanent mark of a journey I wouldn't trade for all the oxygen in the world.
