Another USSR child.

Hi people!
Last year a friend told me about Steemit and I've been meaning to make a post ever since, it definitely took me a while to jump in. Nonetheless here is my story.
My name is Ann, I was born in Soviet Union 30 years ago, Crimea region to be exact. It is funny because without moving anywhere else I lived in three different countries, as many of you know, after USSR collapsed Crimea became a part of Ukraine and now it is Russian.
Just slightly over 2 years ago I immigrated to the United States where I currently reside. I'm married and I have 3 cats, one of them I brought with me on a plane from Sevastopol. Leaving your country and starting everything from a blank page is not as easy as it seems I've learned, but I accepted the challenge and I'm happy about the choice I made.
I'm excited about making connections and building friendships with like-minded people, sharing our stories and experiences, figuring it all out!
I really do not want to overload my post with pictures, but I also feel like it might be a good way to introduce myself and let you guys have a peek into my world. Hope you enjoy!
Please welcome my kitties, Lena, Artax and one of the worst cats you could ever meet 2xFoot:

Things to do in Crimea:

  • Go to the beach! Duh!
