First of all, thanks for stopping by and checking out my website.

I am very glad you are here, and hope you will find some useful and fun information for yourself.

Let me introduce myself.

My name is Elena, and originally I am from Kiev, the Ukraine.

I moved to the States over 14 years ago.

I graduated with honors from Minsk (Belarus) Linguistic University in 1991 with a Degree in Linguistics (Russian, English and Italian).

In school and college I always took a great interest in languages, reading and writing essays.

After my college graduation I travelled a lot around Europe, especially Italy, for business and pleasure.

I had worked as an Italian/Russian/English translator and interpreter for many years.

Now I am working in the Banking Industry, that I have also enjoyed quite a bit for the past 9 years.

I have always been interested in different cultures, customs and traditions, wanted to learn what the rest of the world is all about, what keeps people motivated and happy around the world.

Personally, I am a hopeless optimist.

My life’s motto is “Whatever happens – happens for the best”, and also “Treat people the way you would like to be treated yourself”. 

I hope reading the articles on my website will help to make your life a little brighter, happier, more enjoyable and optimistic.

 Let’s make this world a better place to live!

 One person at a time…

No matter what country you live in…

and what you do…

 and who you are…

 You totally deserve to be HAPPY!
