About me

Interests	Welcome, Dear Visitor! 😊 I'm Irina, and at 67, I've traded my classroom for the world map and the kitchen. This is my digital home—a place to share: the joy of new places, the comfort of old recipes, the inspiration found in art and culture, and the wisdom found in a life well-lived. Whether I'm exploring a museum in Los-Angeles, perfecting a dish from my own or a friend's heritage, or sharing a funny story from my teaching days, you're always welcome to pull up a chair.
