Hello everyone! My name is Alina. I am a bachelor of English philology and I'm currently doing my Master's degree in the theory and practice of translation and intercultural communication. I work as a teacher of English and translator.

I love learning foreign languages, my last passion's French. I like books. Read a lot, my fav authors are Jonathan Safran Foer, John Green, Michael Lermontov and Sergey Esenin. Also I'm fond of different kinds of music, like Neil Diamond, Azure Blue, Coldplay, Sade, Blink 182, the Beatles, Moby, the Smiths, Armin van Buuren, the Fray, Sting, Motorama, Сплин etc.

I adore travelling and strongly believe that one day spent in another place can change the whole life. I've already visited Spain, Andorra, Finland, India, Israel, Palestina, Egypt, Turkey, Czech Republic, Italy (+ Vatican). And I'm dreaming of Ireland, Australia, GB, USA and Iceland.

I like to learn something about new cultures and traditions, dream of true love and believe that there is some kind of magic everywhere.

I love seas and oceans. When you sit on the sand and watch boundless water which merges with a horizon line, hear the sound of waves breaking on the shore, accompanied by the cries of snow-white seagulls, you feel for a second that you've got the sense of life, feel a single whole with nature, feel no pain or sorrow or despair, feel nothing and everything at the same time. You feel infinite.

If you have no idea what to send me I like (these are just suggestions, I will be happy to see anything you find special!):
