Hi, I'm Kim. I'm from Nynäshamn, a coastal town just south of Stockholm, Sweden. I have an adventurous spirit, thrive on challenging myself, and always strive to make the most out of life.
I began my freediving journey as a kid playing underwater rugby, and in recent years, I've been training and pursuing my passion as a competitive freediver, spending much of the year between Asia and Europe. Outside of freediving, you'll find me snowboarding, surfing, spearfishing, enjoying the ocean, or simply spending time in nature.

Lucky enough to make freediving part of my career! I have an itch to be constantly on the move and enjoy visiting new places where I can explore the underwater world, connect with fellow freedivers and try ALL the food!

I am Zsófia Törőcsik. I discovered freediving as a sport in 2023 during a trip to Malta with my friends, where I realized I might have some skills for diving deep. I’m a former competitive triathlete, a sport I was drawn to because of my love for water and the sea. Triathlon taught me a lot about myself through intense training.
Now, I work in IT (SAP) and train alongside that. My club, the nOxygen Apnea Club, supports me greatly, and I’m lucky to be part of such a community. Although I dedicate almost all my free time to freediving, I also enjoy motorcycle rides and tours, taking care of my car, and horse riding.
