On this page I will talk a little bit about what I like to do in my free
time. I think it will help to describe me as a person.
Calligraphy
I have always been fascinated by the beautiful curves of letters and
words created by ink. One day I decided to try it for myself, since
then I write beautiful letters and signing postcards for relatives
and friends.
Painting
I have never studied how to paint, but I am a quick learner. Ever
since childhood I have liked to draw animals and cartoon characters.
For me it’s a biggest relaxing activity.
Cooking
The desire to cook has been in me from early childhood. I remember
observing my grandma, when she was preparing dough for the pirogi or
making a borscht ( Ukrainian tradition soup). Now I really like the
process of cooking and experimenting with different ingredients.
Crocheting
It’s a quite new hobby but I have already made few projects. I think
it’s so magical that you can create something from zero and then use
it! Here is my latest work - bag in Ukrainian flag colors.
Collecting vintage
I am inspired by items with a story to tell, antiques bring you back
in time and makes you appreciate it.
Playing games
I am a old gamer, I mean, I have played games almost all my entire
life starting from the age of 7, when we got our first computer. I’m
very interested in the game industry, following news and trying new
games.
Reading books
My favorite genre is fantasy, historical drama, classics and
non-fiction books. Sometimes I read manga too.
Watching tv-series and anime
Every weekend we have a movie night, when me and my husband choose a
nice series to watch with snacks. Lately we have been going through
Star Trek The Next Generation and anime Re:Zero.
Visiting museums and art-galleries
It’s one of the best places for me for entertainment. I find art and
history in general captivating.
Traveling
I like to visit new places and countries. Culture, architecture,
nature, history - it’s all very inspiring. Especially when you
travel with your beloved.
Photography
Last but not least. Maybe my favorite hobby. It’s very difficult for
me to not take a picture. I want to catch every beautiful moment.
And for me it’s happens quite a lot. That’s why I created a gallery
where you can see more of my pictures.
