In Her Own Words
About her
I’m curious by nature, grounded by discipline, cultivating depth in everything I do, and always seeking authenticity—learning is my lifelong pursuit.
I live in a world steeped in music. I sing and play the lute, medieval gittern, piano, and explore especially medieval and early Renaissance music. My musical journey began with classical music training, with a special love for Russian composers. And as I also love foreign cultures, I’m deeply moved by traditional music, especially from Eastern Europe, the Balkans, India, and the Far East. I’m also part of a Bulgarian choir, which brings me a lot of joy.
Outside of music, I have a wide range of interests. I enjoy water sports, nature, hikes, attend concerts and theatre regularly, and love spending time with close friends—whether we’re discovering new places or diving into an exhibition. I enjoy being in the outdoors in good company. I love travelling, especially to places full of history (but I also like spending time relaxing on the beach). I can speak French English, and I'm intermediate in Italian and Russian.
Though my professional life is in a completely different field, my heart belongs to the arts, culture, and meaningful connections. I value conversations that go beyond the surface, and I’m drawn to people who are thoughtful, curious, and sincere.
I love ancient civilisations, Master and Margarita by Bulgakov (my favourite book!), troubadours' songs, jasmine and other flowers with strong smell, Hiroshige, Stravinsky, Botticelli, the sea... and the list is still long!
About her ideal match
I'm looking for someone who can meet me where intellect and emotion intertwine. Like every other, I hope to build a happy life and a happy relation full of laughter, harmony and love. I wish we would help each other to grow into our best selves.
