1. Every shooting is something new for me, always a new experience. The craziest memory is from a shooting I had to do with animals: snakes, donkey, horses, huge dogs. I am really afraid of animals, but with every new project I manage to overcome my fear and that makes it so interesting for me.
2. I like traveling and getting acquainted with different cultures. I like especially trying different cuisines, going to small cafeterias with my friends and eating national dishes. In this way I can discover new recipes and then cook them by myself.
3. Last year i visited New York, London, Paris and Milan and I must admit I liked all of them. Milan has very tasty food, London and Paris have beautiful architecture, New York is a friendly city with skyscrapers that struck me at a glance. But honestly, I prefer Kiev, my native town. I love it all: atmosphere, architecture, food, my friends and my family.
4. My friends in the modeling world are mainly models from my country and it’s so cool to meet people from your city in other countries.
5. Lately I have started to learn to ride a skateboard and it’s very cool! I’m not a good skateboarder yet, but I hope I will be good in this soon…
6. I like all kinds of music: pop, rap, electronic, indie rock, soul, blues etc. It all depends on my mood 🙂
7. When I’m with my best friends, I can lose my self-control because we always have fun. We have our own jokes and stories which are always nice to live and remember.

1. So far I don’t have really crazy memories as I’m into modeling just very recently, this is just my second trip! But I hope that lots of crazy and unexpected things are going to happen along the line!
2. My preferences may vary. At the moment I prefer small, cozy cafes that make me feel comfortable with that warm smell of coffee…I love that smell very much!
3. My very first trip was to China and it was such a great experience for me! Now I’m in Milan and I really like this city. I will definitely be back here again. As for the future, I can say that I want to go to London, New York and Paris. I am looking forward to choosing a favorite after seeing them all.
4. My best friends aren’t from the modeling world at the moment. But I can’t wait to get to meet well-known designers as Stefano Gabbana and Valentino Garavani and models as Natasha Poly, Sasha Pivova and Natalia Vodianova. It’s my dream…
5. Maybe it’s jogging when people are still sleeping, when it’s not crowded everywhere. You run while listening to your favorite music without thinking about anything else. It is very distracting from the daily problems and it relaxes me. I think this is my obsession!
6. As for the music, I can not choose a particular singer or musician. I keep listening to quiet music, it calms me and improves my mood.
7. Hmm .. I guess lying. Especially when the truth is already known, and the person still rests.

1. You know actually I walked into a fashion brands office by accident because was I looking for another casting. They told me where to go and after a few days suddenly had a casting for them and got the job. Quite funny because I was not even suppose to be there in the first place.
2. I think almost every city has lovely places but at the moment I must say I really like Milan. I always go to Solo Pizza Café because the pizza is really delicious! God Save The Food (GSTF) is also a great spot to have lunch or dinner.
3. Not a lot of countries yet, I went to Milan three times in the past year and two other countries also. But I love Italy! The food, the people, the atmosphere, it’s so great. Even though you can’t really walk on the streets without guys following you. Love it here haha!
4. I absolutely love my friend Sophia (@sophiaahrens) and in the last month became pretty good friends with Marie (@marie.joerg) Karolina (@karolawarzecha) and many others but I’m not going to name all of them.
5. I actually love learning new things and as a model you learn so many new things every day which you’ll never learn at school. You learn about different cultures because you live in a model apartment with girls from all over the world! I think this is a huge experience and I’m really happy that I’m able to do this. I don’t really have huge obsessions, love chocolate but I think almost everyone does…
6. I went to the concert of The Kooks while in Milan, it was amazing, I really love their music. The script, Arctic Monkeys and Ella Eyre are also on my love list. Lately I’ve been listening a lot to Can’t feel my face by The Weeknd and No faith in Brooklyn by Hoodie Allen.
7. Loads of things haha, seeing my friends and family after went on a trip, After Eights and Oreos I guess… 🙂
