Quelques mots sur elle...
D'origine ukrainienne, avec du sang tatar, polonais et grec (ce cocktail explosif explique sans doute son caractère un peu …exotique !), elle vit et exerce en France depuis 2001 (Cannes, Suisse, sa chère Ukraine (Kiev) et Obolon) tous ces lieux ont été peuplés par elle, jusqu'au jour où, la raison l'ayant circonvenue, elle se est installée à Paris (2005).
Que voulez-vous, ce sont les signes de l'âge qui l'ont dominée !
Comme beaucoup de slaves, elle a fait de hautes études dans un domaine respectable (généralement les pôles respectables en Ukraine et en Russie sont : droit, banque et finances, diplomatie, mannequinat, et bien sûr commerce pour, par la suite, créer son entreprise).
Moi elle a eu la chance de faire les deux, les 2,5 même à la fois (notez que ces 2,5 catégories-là ne se recoupent pas forcément : les études à l'Université de Relations Internationales, la carrière de mannequin pendant 7 ans et aider ma mère, qui a été l'initiatrice de la création de leur entreprise familiale : chaussures et maroquinerie.
Comme beaucoup de ceux qui ont décidé de faire leur vie en France, elle a parlée uniquement en anglais en arrivant, ce que n'était pas gênant, car sur la Côte d'Azur, l'anglais a la même valeur que l'argent.
Ce blog relate ses parcours professionnel mais aussi ses passions sans lesquelles elle ne pourra pas survivre, comme la télévision, la musique, l'image, l'architecture, la peinture, le sport.
Ses objectifs sont : la Production d'émissions de TV Multiculturelles,
Expositions, musique, nouvelles technologies, opéra, cinéma, image, voitures, restaurants, livres, (!), design...
