Introduce Yourself/Tell About Yourself: My name is Larissa, a young lady, with an analog camera but totally new ideas about the world, I have a degree in photography, but I have this secret desire to drive trains in Scotland.

What Inspires You Every day? : Honestly, God, when I think about giving up, and I don’t find strength and motivation, I think about God and it’s like a charge of energy in my heart. And of course, nature, where there is nature there is inspiration for me.

What is some words of wisdom you live by?: Remember… hate is always foolish… and love is always wise. Always try to be nice, but never fail to be kind. Laugh hard, run fast, be kind – (Doctor Who)

What is your ultimate goal in life? : Happiness, surrounded by true friends, a happy marriage and being financially stable – and a home in the woods, of course.

How have you been during the pandemic and how has it affected you? : Truly, it was brutal. But at the same time God gave me a new vision of my life, I graduated, and I knew more about myself in one year than in 22 years.

What is a message you would like to give others? : Kindness is the key

What else would you like to tell others about you or your life?: You know, life can be hard at times, as it was for me, and it will be many times, but if you believe in God, hold on to him, he will bear that burden for you. Because every life is a pile of good things and bad things. The good things don’t always soften the bad things, but vice versa, the bad things don’t always spoil the good things and make them unimportant. Keep going be kind.
