The answers to the questions I was asked:

What was the last picture you took? It was a picture of a meal I cooked for myself last night- it was not a photogenic one so I will not post it here!
What was the last lie you told? I told someone I was away this weekend where in reality I am not - I just did not want to see that person and did not want to hurt their feelings!
What's the best compliment you ever received? I was once told by someone that I had the most beautiful eyes in the world.
What cheers you up? Friends (the TV show), my actual friends, macarons, sunshine.
What is your favorite food? Hmm, I have so many! I guess if I had to choose it would be pelmeni - a Russian variation of dumplings. They send me right back to childhood!
What's your best childhood memory? I have a very clear one from when I was 5. It was my birthday and we were on our way to pick up my new puppy - and the minute I saw him I named him after my favourite cartoon character
What is your strongest personal quality? Stubbornness. I will insist on being right till the end and can't stand being told otherwise. However, I do reflect on the criticisms and later apologise if I was wrong.
What does your perfect day look like? Wake up, go to the beach, sip on cocktails and have paella. Then, go home, spend time with my family, and later have a nice relaxing night out with my friends!
What was your favorite holiday? Going to Mexico in 2012 - one of the most relaxing holidays, and in a truly beautiful place!
If you could live anywhere, where would that be? So far, I'd have to say somewhere in the Caribbean. I just love the tropical weather.
Sunrise or sunset? Sunrise. Nothing more amazing than staying up all night just to witness the first rays of sunshine!
