If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be?
Edinburgh, definitely Edinburgh. I visited the city some times and I loved it at the first sight. It can be also any other town or village in Scotland. Or the UK 😀

Luna
I was away for a while because I was busy. Now I can say that I’m happy to be owned by a cat. Actually, she is a three-month-old kitten named Luna. I have always wanted a Calico cat, and so my dream came true. Luna is a pretty little creature who fills all my time. She is a curious, cheerful, and clever girl. I’ll keep you informed about her growth, for sure.
Luna
I can’t wait—my kitten Luna arrives in two weeks! The last thing I searched for online was different items for cats. I looked for and bought a pet carrier, two toys, and a soft comforter for her. I’m so excited to welcome her to my home!
Typical day
Was today typical? In general, yes, it was. I had one online lesson in the morning and one live lesson in the afternoon (I mentioned that I teach foreign languages). The live lesson wasn’t typical because my student visited me at home; usually, I go to my students. I plan to go for a walk after dinner, and I hope the weather doesn’t frustrate it. It’s often raining these days, so fingers crossed.

How would I describe myself to someone? – Hi, I am an introvert. That’s enough.

Invitation for a dinner
If I could host a dinner and anyone I invite was sure to come, who would I ask? My friends, for sure. They helped me survive during the worst moments, and I would like to share my best ones with them.
Daily Routine
What time do you go to bed and wake up currently?
The best time to go to bed for me is midnight, and I feel fine when I wake up at eight in the morning. Sad to say, I work from 8 a.m. about twice a week. Fortunately, I work online, so that’s enough for me to wake up at 6:45 a.m. That’s how my routine looks.
Comfort
What strategies do you use to increase comfort in your daily life?
Unfortunately, the answer is one – full control. That helps me to feel safe and comfortable every day. I am working on this problem with my psychotherapist because it is a real problem, and it seems that things are slightly better. But a long way is before me.
The Quote
Absolutely! The English idiom “Don’t judge a book by its cover” carries a significant message. It’s all too easy to make snap judgments about someone we meet for the first time, but these initial impressions can lead to misunderstandings and influence our social interactions. By looking beyond surface appearances, we open ourselves to richer connections and a deeper understanding of those around us.
