About Me

Hey, I'm Marchela — I'm here to help you build the life that lights your heart on fire with freedom & joy ♥

A cross-border tax advisor who left the corporate world to live — and build life — on her own terms. Now I help online founders do the same.

Cross-border, ex-Big4 (PwC) tax advisor — now a full-time digital nomad and business owner myself.

My story

From the Big4 to a life without borders.

I'm a Bulgarian girl who moved to Scotland for uni fresh out of high school and followed the rules for yeeeears. Be good. Get good grades. Go to the best uni. Get a secure well-paying job (hello life of accountant 😄) ... until one day I burned it all to the ground and quit all of it to start fresh.

After uni, I started my career like most accountants do — inside the corporate world, at one of the Big4 (PwC) firms in London, advising high networth clients on their complex, cross-border tax situations. I loved my 7 years at PwC and I learned so much about how the wealthy work and think; how they utilise their taxes to get rich and stay rich, and realised just how much most people overpay in taxes — simply because no one ever told them they don't have to.

But the more I was learning, the more I was realising I was overpaying in taxes too and I was getting to the point where I no longer wanted to spend a boring pre-determined life in one city, at a desk, following the corporate ranks, applying all that I knew for someone else. 5 years ago I realised life's too short and I'd better live it on my own terms, not someone else's — so I left my corporate job, I left the UK and its punitive tax system that was making it impossible to get ahead. And I started my own business to become location independent and have cool cafes around the world be my new dreamy offices.

Since then I've personally saved tons of euros in my own taxes and have helped dozens of other 6 & 7-figure online business owners become financially free too — by optimising their taxes, business setups and lifestyle, AND build the life on their own terms. One they feel inspired to live and that allows them to achieve the goals they've had for years but always felt so far away and do it all NOW when they're young, sexy and healthy. 

My clients are now buying their dream homes in Bali, Chiang Mai and all over Europe. They're retiring early. Retiring their parents early. Growing their portfolios and safety net. They're finally slowing things down to enjoy more of life and bring more fun into it. THIS is what I'm here to help my clients build and this is what I'd love for you too ♥

How I work

The way I work - my approach.

Simple & fully compliant

I'm all about building setups that are legal (first and foremost), simple and as cost efficient as possible. We rarely need complex multi-entity setups and expensive structuring to achieve the goal. So we'll keep it simple!

Making it all make sense

You shouldn't need to be a chartered accountant to understand your taxes. I'll walk you through it like we're two friends catching up over coffee — which we'll mostly certainly be by the end of it hehe.

Tailored to YOU ♥

This is the bit I love most — it's all about YOU. Your business, your dreams, where you want to wake up in the morning, the people you love. I care so much about building around your real dream life. So that's what we start from. Not from a pre-set list of countries we try to fit you into. 

Building your Freedom lifestyle

Honestly, the tax saving isn't even the real point — it's what it gives you. The point is a lifestyle you love and one that brings you money, fun and joy. Which is why I'll dig deep into exactly what that vision of life looks like for you, so we can work towards it together. 

Who I help

Built for fellow location-independent entrepreneurs.

Online founders

6 & 7-figure business owners whose income has outgrown their current high-tax system — and who want to keep far more of it, legally.

Remote business owners

People running location-independent businesses who need a global strategy that travels as freely and flexibly as they do.

Digital nomads

Full-time travelers juggling multiple countries, residencies and rules — who want clarity and confidence, not constant uncertainty and overwhelm.

Beyond the spreadsheets

I live the life I designed.

I'm not working from behind a corporate desk (I used to but now you'll see me work from cafes in Chiang Mai, or cool coworking places in Bansko). I've truly built my dream location-independent business and life around the world — which means I understand the real questions you're facing, because I've had them too.

Freedom, for me, isn't a buzzword. It's the whole point. It means having the time to do what we love — for me it's trail run, hike, travel, be present with my family, and being able to make the choices you want to make — take the time off, book the lush place, buy the better flight, knowing you're abundant and can afford it. 

Let's work together

Let's see how life could transform in months.

I pour so much time & care into everyone I work with, so I only take 3 clients a month now. This is why my VIP 1:1 service is by application only. If you're serious about lowering your taxes and achieving your goals, apply and we'll see if we're a fit ♥
