The second in our series highlighting our team's unique journeys is Mahtab, our Assistant Manager at Lina Stores Kings Cross Why did you move to London? My family and I lived in southern Iran, and my father, who had a progressive mindset, constantly urged me to move to Tehran, believing that gaining experience in the capital would be essential for my growth. So, at 18, I moved there to study biology. While studying, I developed a passion for journalism and started writing for a newspaper. Later, I decided to pursue medicine, so I moved to Georgia and studied there for six years. During that time, COVID hit, and I was working as an on-call doctor, which was a truly harrowing experience with so much loss of life. After graduating as a doctor, I returned to Iran but had my sights set on working in Italy. I spent much time learning Italian, even reaching a B2 level, but unfortunately, my visa application was rejected. Though I love Iran—its people and beauty—its government makes life challenging. I then applied to Cambridge University and was accepted into a 15-month master’s program in Biomedical Science. However, finding accommodation in Cambridge was impossible, so I eventually moved to London. Why Hospitality? When I moved to London, I was looking for a part-time job and initially worked for an events agency, but it wasn’t for me—I found it difficult to build relationships when I didn’t see the same people often. Then, I applied to Lina Stores and felt so shy during my trial shift! However, the team was incredibly kind—everyone made me feel so welcomed. After that shift, I knew I wanted to stay. I absoutely loved the mint-green decor! My family in Iran thinks working in a restaurant is a step down, but honestly, the people here have become like family. My GM, in particular, feels like an older brother. I love working with the team and meeting both new and regular guests. It reminds me of my time as a doctor, where I cared for people. At Lina Stores, I feel that people genuinely care about me too. When someone walks through the door, you may not know their story, but you have the opportunity to take care of them, which helps you connect with them. Maybe Italy wasn’t my destination, but working in an Italian restaurant in London feels like it was meant to be.

The first in our series highlighting our team's unique journeys is Sara, our Retail Merchandiser & Inventory Manager. What inspired you to move to London, and how has this city influenced your career and personal growth? I had been telling my parents that I would move to London since I was 13 years old. Back then it was just pure fascination with the idea of London and everything you see on TV… also, all the concerts were in London and that’s all I cared about! As I finished school and needed to figure out what to do with my life, it also started to become a place where I could see a lot of opportunities I didn’t have back home. There's always something happening in London, that was the main reason why I wanted to be here. From a career perspective, I could never have achieved what I have achieved here if I had stayed in Italy. I was given the opportunity to learn and to grow while working, which helped me build my confidence and got me to where I am today. How does working at Lina Stores align with your dreams and goals when you decided to move to London? Beyond my imagination. I didn’t have a clear dream job or goal when I first started looking. When I joined Lina as an Office Manager that’s as far as I thought I would go, but thanks to the opportunities that I was continuously given, I started to be a little greedier! I guess you can say that the job shaped my goals as time went by and exceeded all the expectations I had back then! What challenges did you face when you first arrived in London, and how did you overcome them? I had barely spent any time outside of Italy when I moved to London. I was 20 years old and suddenly had only myself to rely on so adapting to that was a little tough. I had a good support system here already, which helped me navigate the city and all the things I wasn’t used to doing. I was also relieved when I finally found high-quality pasta at Lina Stores to cook, as food is such an important part of making yourself feel at home. I was very quickly over the pasta from Asda that my host parents were feeding me when I first moved! Can you share a memorable experience or learning moment at Lina Stores that has shaped your career or outlook on life? As annoying as it is to be talking about COVID still, it’s probably 2020 when we all had to go into lockdown. We had very little time to change everything we knew about how we were operating the business until then and find a way to adapt to the new normal. That was kind of a big realisation moment for me, because what I could do for the company really had an impact on the future of the business. What advice would you give to others who are considering moving to a new city for better opportunities, based on your experience? Pushing your boundaries can be scary but it can also open many doors you never would have thought you could walk through.
