Evelina was born in 2005. Though still shy, she is very fond of learning German. Evelina wants to study to become a German language teacher. Her cherished dream is to become a translator from Ukrainian into English and German, and to go to Berlin.
She likes to read books, especially detective stories. Her favorite food is pizza with mushrooms.
In 10 years, Evelina would like to have a good job and a cozy house where she can check students’ homework or translate texts. When asked about what kind of teacher she would like to be, she replied that she would be modern and on friendly terms with her students.
From talking with her, it seems that she has many dreams that she
cannot express in words. Her eyes reveal her desire to be loved, protected, and supported.
It is important to approach her with special sensitivity; if you find the key to her heart, her love will overwhelm everything around.
Evelina is waiting for her future parents and believes that dreams can come true.
