In her free time, Taya is trying to advance the situation of cryonics in France. She has been a cryonicist for 15 years and is currently a member of the Cryonics Institute and, more recently, Tomorrow Biostasis.

She is also the president of the French Cryonics Association and has been trying to organize a community in France with the goal of making local standby possible and eventually legalizing cryonics in France.

Her other interests outside of longevity and cryonics include film, ecology, travel, ancient cultures, astronomy, active dreaming, art, and singing.
