Amanda-almond fusion || #IntroduceYourself
Hi Steemitopoli inhabitants, good whatever the time of day it is in your part of the world!
Today I want to talk about me (what a selfish person). So, who am I?
Quoting my first story's P.S. : "...I'm just an Ukrainian girl who grew up in a Russian territory, living now in Italy..."
I was born in the heart of that conroversial territory between Russia and Ukraine, Crimea peninsula.
(In photo: field near my home in Ukraine that fully represents the Ukrainian flag: blue of sky and gold of wheat fields)
At the age of 12 I moved in Florence, Italy with my mother. And immediately I fell in love with this city.

You can not fall in love with his story and his art, and of course his wine.
What's AMANDORLA and where it comes from?
Well, when I was like 14-15 years old I was given this nickname: Mandy. It comes from fusion between Amanda Tanen from "Ugly Betty" TV show
and Mandy from the animated TV series "The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy"
The mix of their characters is completely mine.
Over the years, everyone has tried to stifle my nickname like "Mandorla" (in Italian it means "almond"). In Ex-URSS countries we have this thing that you have a short name and the full name (for example: Vanya-Ivan, Vika-Viktoriya or Kostya-Konstantin), so one day I trought that if Mandy is short for Amanda so Mandorla is short for Amandorla.
(An example of 15 years old me)
I just mentioned 2 TV series, well I'm just a drug addict to them. Thanks to my (little) OCD I have a list in alphabetical order of TV series I'm watching right now and those I have to watch, and thank to my (periodic) insomnia I have the time to watch them all.
Well, I want to finish my presentation here 'cause I already said quite enough about me. :)
Be well and drink lots of water (it's dietetic)
Good!
