mmm, where do we start?

this blog is primary created for my english-speaking friends.
and I would love to meet new people here.
well, i guess, first of all i should say something about myself, even though it is a cliché.
my name is Ksenia. i live in san francisco, ca since january 2008, but origianally i'm from russia, siberian part of it to be, city named irkutsk which is 30 miles away from beautiful, the deepest freshwater lake in the world Baikal. you can easily identify it by looking on world map, can you see this big blue spot in the middle of eurasia? yes, i'm from there =)
i tend to think of myself as very diverse person, interested in a lot of different things, open-minded and friendly. i like take photos, but unfortunately because of the lack of time now (i'm a full time sudent with 17 units), it happens quite rarely. i take pictures for myself, the same as i do writing. i have paper journal, my moleskine, with which i share my ideas, views, pictures.. some of it will be posted here too.
my first blog is ksenish-soul.livejournal.com, but since it is primary russian, i decided to create blogpost too.
as i plan it to be, this blog will be first of all about me, my ideas and vies on something, my likes and dislikes, my personal life.
