Anna from Poltava, Ukraine: "I dream of a special man. Not the best one for everybody but the best for me. I want him to be smart, intelligent and talented. I want him to support me in my creativity and it would be nice that he is also a creative person . Maybe a musician. A man who is attentive, serious, versatile and able to make me happy as I can make him happy too. My friends say I’m a very easy-going person, very social, active and optimistic. I can be different in some situations. Sometimes I’m shy, sometimes I’m too active. Also I have philosophical thoughts and want to dream a bit. My favorite season is winter. But I want to feel warmth and care of my close people. I like good food and beautiful flowers such as roses and gladioluses. I always find positive moment in some sad situation. And try to stay optimistic in life."
