There’s always something happening and plenty of beautiful areas to explore both within and outside the city. My friends and I spent several years talking about moving here before we eventually did in February 2020 – just in time for the first lockdown! Despite this, we managed to settle right in, and Nottingham felt like a true home. My favourite thing about the city is the community-feel it has and how everything feels like a partnership. As well as this, everyone makes you feel so welcome. As soon as I had the opportunity to get out and meet people I instantly knew I'd chosen the right place to live. ***What is your role at It’s in Nottingham, and how did you get into it?*** My life in Nottingham (after the lockdown) started when I joined the wonderful team at 31K - an independent cocktail bar in Hockley. Through them, I met so many amazing people - including the It's in Nottingham team! Working in the hospitality sector meant I got to know the city and its people even more, so my passion and desire to support it grew. Through the years, I learned what It’s in Nottingham does to help the city and I decided I wanted in. I’m now working as Business Relationship Manager, with a fearsome team working to make the city safer and healthier. ***What is your favourite hidden gem in Nottingham that visitors often overlook?*** Living by the river, I think it’s something that should be explored more by people visiting Nottingham. The walk is lovely from the city as you can walk along the canal the whole way and there’s a cute café by the water that does great hot chocolate! The memorial gardens are also worth a visit while you’re down there. --- Share Article: [ ](https://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.itsinnottingham.com%2Fnews%2Fmeet-the-team-nikita"e=Meet%20the%20team%3A%20Nikita) [ ](https://twitter.com/share?text=Meet%20the%20team%3A%20Nikita&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.itsinnottingham.com%2Fnews%2Fmeet-the-team-nikita) [ ](https://www.linkedin.com/sharing/share-offsite/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.itsinnottingham.com%2Fnews%2Fmeet-the-team-nikita"e=Meet%20the%20team%3A%20Nikita) ### Related Articles [ ![0a508f733d2a90dcf7bad5b6c5c785f3d8f4f3c9 940x788 w2400q80fitclipautoformat](/uploads/generic/_320x245_crop_center-center_none/1097/0a508f733d2a90dcf7bad5b6c5c785f3d8f4f3c9-940x788-w2400q80fitclipautoformat.jpg) Meet the team: Rich ](https://www.itsinnottingham.com/news/meet-the-team-rich) [ ![D5ec6c2a915c5b58ab1c095b8128e7350a2b5b03 940x788 w2400q80fitclipautoformat](/uploads/generic/_320x245_crop_center-center_none/1101/d5ec6c2a915c5b58ab1c095b8128e7350a2b5b03-940x788-w2400q80fitclipautoformat.jpg) Meet the team: Sam ](https://www.itsinnottingham.com/news/meet-the-team-sam) Be In The Know Be In The Know Be In The Know Be In The Know Be In The Know Be In The Know ![Nottingham Contemporary Art Gallery](/uploads/generic/_360x540_crop_center-center_none/footer-flick2-01.jpg) ![Nottingham Market Square](/uploads/generic/_360x540_crop_center-center_none/footer-flick2-03.jpg) ![Red Leaves](/uploads/generic/_360x540_crop_center-center_none/footer-flick2-02.jpg) Follow us *on* SOCIALS Amazing food and drinks, all the shops you'll ever need, and inspirational events and activities.
