About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I want to be forever young

ABOUT ME

I love being young. It's about freedom and opportunities. When you can do anything you want with your life! The older you get the harder to do that. For two years I was studying in Europe, in 4 different countries doing my Masters degree in Business studies.I was born in Moscow, the biggest city in Russia. That's why I'm a big city person. I love New York, London, Rome. But I also used to spend the whole summer in the village at my grandparents' so from time to time I HAVE to go out of town and enjoy quite life of the countryside. I love my family. They are the most important part of my life. My friends. I love traveling! I'm always get too bored when I'm stuck in one place for too long.I love baking! Bread, pies, cupcakes. That is my antidepressant :) What else... I try to remind myself every day that you should enjoy you life! Love your friends, family, do not envy, do not judge, be optimistic, smile!! :)Hope it helped to understand what kind of person I am.

PHILOSOPHY

"Let us die young or let us live forever"
