Born in Dubai, shaped by the world, and grounded in Canada’s backcountry—Tania’s life is a study in balance, bravery, and becoming.
Tania Kadri Trickett doesn’t just live in one place—she lives in many. Born in Dubai. Raised in Bombay. Educated in the U.S. now rooted in Canada. Her story unfolds across continents, cultures, and coastlines.
By profession, she designs kitchens—meticulous, beautiful spaces that reflect function and feeling. But when she steps away from her desk, Tania is pulled by something wilder. Something colder. Something with trees, cliffs, and sky.
She’s found her rhythm: nine hours of work, eight hours of sleep, seven hours of space to breathe. She calls it balance. And it’s how she thrives.
“I hike. I swim” she says. “I grew up athletic. Life’s more demanding now, but that part of me still lives on.”
She tells the story of a single moment—frozen in memory. A 15-foot cliff. A deep breath. Then the freefall.
“I climbed it and jumped straight down into the water. It was incredible.”
That leap—brief and bold—says everything about how Tania moves through life. Thoughtfully. Deliberately. And always with the courage to go deeper.
Today, her trails run through the Canadian wilderness, where weather swings wildly between summer heat and freezing winters. That’s where Kalanoc becomes more than gear—it becomes trust.
“When you hike out here, you need flexibility. You need layers that perform—because the elements don’t care about your comfort. Kalanoc gets that. It’s made with love, with passion, and it shows. I trust it because there’s a genuine dedication to excellence behind the brand.”
For Tania, it’s not just about technical performance—it’s about emotional resonance. The story in the stitch. The soul in the design. The alignment between her values and the brand she wears when she disappears into the wild.
When asked what she’d say to others looking to begin their outdoor journey, her answer is simple and powerful:
“Electronics last only until their battery dies. But nature? Nature is forever.”
Adventure, to her, isn’t about scale. It’s about spirit. “Adventure keeps life interesting. It reminds you to keep flowing—like water.”
And when life gets loud or the world feels overwhelming, she returns to one quiet, defiant phrase. A reminder to herself. A mantra for the rest of us.
“I M POSSIBLE“
