I am Katya

Hello everyone. I was born and raised in Kazakhstan ( the Borat country, for those who know what I mean :D ). My two brothrers and I grew up, watching my parents making business from the point of selling dishes made in China at the local markets to point of creating a leading company in a beauty industry in Kazakhstan, VLAEKAN. The company imports professional goods for beauticians, hairdressers and nail stylists from Switzerland, Italy, Germany and Latvia.

After my failures and hate for studying in local universities, I did my second bachelor in Oxford Brooks Uni. That was difficult, but successful and I don't not want to repeat it :D. England is not my country I can say.

I jumped in to the family business right another the studies and started working in our nail studio as a manager. Three years later, I went to Berlin and did my master degree in International business and management. During the program, I got to know my future husband, - the best man on earth.

After the graduation, we moved in and started our life in Switzerland. Got married one year ago. I still keep working in my family business, but in other department. I am quite good in online marketing, PR and strategic thinking and I can do all of it on distance, however I travel to Kazakhstan almost every two months.

I respect minimalism in everything. It makes my life even more beautiful and easy.

I travel quite a lot. I love skiing, riding, tennis and in general I am a very happy and blessed person. I can't hide my emotions and it does not help me sometimes. Whatever! True is better than a fake smile :D

I would love to meet new people here in steem!

PS: I am 31

Best to all!

Katya
