My name is Natalya. You may call me Natasha or Nathalie, that
is up to you. I was born on 29 March in 1972 in a small town of Gatchina
(40 km from St. Petersburg) and I still live there.
My star sign is Arias and it would be unfair to deny
that I have some features typical for this sign. I am not a vegetarian,
I usually eat plain food, but I do admire Chinese and French cuisine.
As I live alone, I do the cooking once or twice a month for my friends,
they are people who know me perfectly and still love despite this.
I do not mind having a glass of light dry wine. I lead healthy life,
but I regard taking too much care of your health as a boring disease.
As to my appearance, I am 170 cm tall, my weight is 67 kg, I have
chestnut hair and green-brown eyes.
According to my diploma I am a teacher at primary
school. But due to certain circumstances I have been working in a
different sphere for a long time and my job does not give me any satisfaction.
I love children a lot, well, not all of them. Unfortunately, I do
not have my own kids yet, though I have already experienced a failed
marriage. But it does not make me desperate and I hope everything
is to come. I do not think I should tell you much about my past for
now, but to give you a general idea I should say that my creative
energy failed to succeed because of numerous obstacles. I did not
enjoy facing them at that time, but now I am grateful to the fate
for its «interference» in my life. Those lessons proved to be useful
and we should confess that the fate is always fair.
Of course I happen to have some unlucky moments,
but I cope with them without heavy casualties as I never lose my head.
And now I am sure that if I am to meet my partner, the destiny will
certainly arrange this meeting, I just have to be active and pushing
in my search. I am not completely ready to change my life, but I feel
like it. Of course, such global changes can not be smooth and I will
have to sacrifice something, first of all, a stable order of things.
I am far from being a meek and hardworking Cinderella and I do not
dream of a prince and an ideal husband, as an ideal husband is always
married to another woman. I just try to cope with my solitude and
to find a man to become his reliable friend, faithful wife, loving
mother for our kids, a source of his inspiration, his business partner,
his motivator in life.
I am sociable and I enjoy living. I am fond of reading,
I can get so deep in a book that I forget the time and read all night
through. Nabokov, Maugham, Dreiser are some of the writers for whom
I can sacrifice peaceful sleep. Also I like poetry, life seems so
full of harmony when somebody’s poems coincide with the state of my
soul. I love traveling to get to know the world. I am more energetic
than sporty, I used to do karate, hiking and mountaineering. Now I
seldom go to the gym, play rugby if I have time and I like billiard
a lot. By the way, I believe you can say much about a man if you see
him play billiard, drive his car and deal with pets. About pets. I
like them (sometimes more than people) and I dream to have a squirrel-pet.
But now I live with my cat Whiskas and grandmother with senile extravagancies
and the character of Napoleon.
My idea of money and well-being can be explained
by the following quotations «Money does not matter while you have
it», «Poverty is not a vice, but there is something vicious about
it» and «There is nothing better than your home if lack of money prevents
you from going somewhere else».
I am trying to sound objective, so I can not help
telling you about my shortcomings. I believe that the main of them
is my confusing self-reliance and self-assurance, obstinacy and persistence.
I have a poor knowledge of computer (enough only to use e-mail). I
speak terrible English and even more terrible French. Finishing my
story I should say that I am not sending my profile to the Internet
for the sake of vain letter-writing. I have different purposes. May
be the net is not the best way of hunting for happiness, but why not
try it? But I think that too long letter-writing is useless. In the
beginning it is like playing chess where you can stop the clock and
think of your move. But voice, eyes, appearance can be more eloquent
than words. What do I expect of a man? Wisdom and kindness, care and
attention. A possibility not to make important decisions when I have
a man to make them. Common interests, ambitions, kids and happiness
to share. Wisdom is really important in a man, a wise man will always
find a compromise, stay patient, he lives according to a special scale
of spiritual values and he is not able to deceive or betray. My search
must be too long, but the last hope is always followed by one more.
Good luck to everybody!
