About Me

My photo
Svetlana
NC, United States
I am a Mom, a wife, an opinionated thinker, a news junkie. I work so that nobody would expect me to cook (which I do anyway, but that comes as a bonus, not an expectation). I have a Master's degree from UNC-Chapel Hill and a Master's degree from Moscow State University. I work as a realtor. My dream is to live on a tropical island or in a European capital. The absolutely best vacation I have ever taken was to Bora Bora. A paradise closer to home is Bald Head Island.
