Irina

I am originally from Kyiv, Ukraine. Since the beginning of the war, I have been living in Tallinn, Estonia, where I lead an active social life. I would describe myself as emotional and sensitive. I am straightforward, but kind-hearted. I am always ready to help others. I can be persistent when pursuing my goals but I also know how to compromise. I am hardworking and honesty are very important to me. I may be reserved at first but I become more open as I get to know someone better. I am not afraid of new experiences or challenges. I am always willing to try something new professionally for example, after working as a programmer, I retrained as an accountant.

I am curious about the world. I study foreign languages, spend time with my friends, take drawing classes. I am a member of a women club in Tallinn. I enjoy travelling especially visiting historical sites and archaeological excavations. I find it fascinating to discover how people live in different parts of the world. I love art, including theatre, opera, concerts and other cultural events. One of my greatest passions is belly dancing. I dance, perform on stage and take part in festivals. I am also a good cook. Pride and Prejudice is probably the film I could watch again and again.

I have traditional views on family. I see the man as the head of the family and the woman as his loving and supportive partner. It is important to me that we complement each other, enjoy life, discover new things together, make plans together and work towards shared goals. I want us to be a true team. At the same time, it is important to me that my partner respects my personal space.
