Ekaterina Otiko
Ekaterina loves to travel and inspire children to explore the world. She has lived on four continents, visited almost 100 countries, and speaks six languages. Ekaterina holds a master of arts degree in international affairs and studied psychology, linguistics, and elementary education. She also ran an international education company, visiting schools and universities around the world. Ekaterina's studies and travels prompted her to create Sophie & Stephie: The Travel Sisters, a book series based on travel adventures with her two daughters. When Ekaterina isn't writing travel stories, trotting the globe, or mastering a new language, she enjoys spending time with her daughters, dancing, horseback riding, doing aerial yoga, painting, kayaking, biking, and frolicking in the ocean. She also loves animals and wishes she had an elephant in her backyard. Ekaterina lives in California with her doctor husband and their two courageous daughters. With her suitcase always packed, her mind always open to exploring a new location, and her computer always ready to receive a new story, Ekaterina can’t wait to share her experiences with young readers.
