Hello, stranger! My name is Elena. I have been living in Kyiv for my whole life, that is why I am a pretty good guide :) Outgoing, open-minded, with a good sense of humor! I love long walks, food, and the sun. Just like most people here, I do love meeting new people, experince new cultures, and travel! Usually I spend my time watching cooking show, but never end up preparing those recipes. I love to sing, take photos, and watch funny videos on YouTube. Always dreamt to move to California, because of its endless summer c:

PHILOSOPHY (yes, I LOVE quotes)

"Traveling. Because no great story ever started with someone sitting at home".

"Be somebody who makes everybody feel like a somebody".

"Don't tell me it's gonna be easy. Just tell me it's possible".

"If not you, then who? If not now, then when?".

"Be somebody nobody thought you could be".

Music: My everything! Listen to different genres. Mostly pop, RnB, rock, and some rap music.
Movies: I love comedies, romcoms, and horror movies sometimes. I am a total TV series freak.
Books: My favorite author is Nicholas Sparks. Atmosphere and magic which you can feel with your whole body through his books is just a new world.
