Alina_Ilya

Hi, my name is Alina. I live not far from the capital of my country, Russia, in a town called Krasnogorsk. My town is famous for "Zenith" optic cameras. And my job is connected with this, as I like to take and process photographs. I'm a photographer.

I've got a boyfriend. His name is Ilya. He is a poet and philologist. (To tell the truth, he is just studying philology.) He wants to realize himself as a famous poet. I can say that he got no hobbies, then all of mine are his. He's got no, because all of him is a poesy. But often he seems not to be poetic at all.

To tell you more about my hobbies, I've practiced figure skating for a long time, but now i'm not into this sport. Also, I really like to cook, especially sweets. But I do not like sweets (I salty more), so I treat everyone else instead. I like different teas and constantly look for new tastes of tea. My favorite movies are detective films, such as "Inception" "Sherlock" and "The Italian job". I like animals a lot. At my house live 5 cats (but it is a separate story). I study French and English. If someone watched the cartoon "Gravity Falls" then I am like Mabel, I'm a hopeless optimist.

I've wrought you too much about me, because I'd like to know something more about you than just your address, so my interests can help you to find something common between us. I ask you to write about yourself, what you like and appreciate about the place you live, and what you would like to change. I want to learn as much as possible about the world from within, not just from books.

Also, If it's not too difficult for you, put along with your letter a bag of your favorite tea, a photo, or a drawing. And Ilya'd like to get a shot poem (like a quatrain) in your native language with interlinear translation in English.

P.S. If something of our wishes is difficult to you, you can just sand us a beautiful postcard with some nice words.
