nadia cassian

it was 2 months ago when i decided to go visit my aunt who lives there. well it was great. although unlucky my timing because the first 2 or 3 weeks of my stay were COLD and rainy. reminded me of london soo much.. oh and the whole gloomy look.

when the sun actually decided to come out and grace us with its presense San francisco was Beautiful i totally loved it. i loved how everyone is so healthy and organic freaks hehe. i loved whole foods and the organic ice cream. i loved going back to victoria secret ! and i lovedddddddddddd going on the ferry. i saw the san quentin jail.. Ow sCary. hehe thats 2 jails i’ve seen from close. this one and the one in tehran, iran hehe.

Since i am actually legal now i was able to go to bars and clubs with no worries. we went to Fluid around the W hotel? am i wrong? also to ROE .. i dont remember where it is. to MAtrix in mission and around there ohhhhh around there too i also went to the orgasmic pizza, hilarous i took a menu for my scrap book what a funny thing to do and the names and all haha. we went to the hippy zone and had dinner at this lebanese restaurant yum we smoked sheesha and we ate delicious arabic food i was craving for like 100 years :) san francisco is great. and its a lot of fun ! i got to see old friends from mexico and from usa and from iran :) i had a really good time.

well.. many people dont know this about me.. and well many people also sometimes dont believe me until they know a bit about me.

the first time i went to Russia is when i was born there. haha.

my parents were diplomats there at that time and were lucky enough to have me there, although the plan was to go to switzerland. o well. i am their russian souvenir and a reason why my name is nadia. YEs now makes sense? we lived there almost 4 years and i had a nanny named ALA. i dont remember anything..mircale it would be if i actually did. since i was there for communist times my mom wasnt really happy about it and she has some pretty crazy stories about russia and the way they used to sell food like the supermarket. the toilet paper? the bathrooms.. hahaha i think she has more ! i will look for pictures of russia and scan them so i can share my first year of my life.

when i first moved to spain i was around 6 years old and i didnt really understand why we were moving, i dont think i was ever explained.. the reasons. but i looked forward to meeting new people and just having my toys hehe.

i lived in la moraleja in madrid and it was a great place to live in for my childhood. it was elegant, cultural, interesting, fun. i dont really know where else it would have been better to pass this childhood years hehe. well only 3 anyways. i would never take my “Siesta” and the neighbors would hate me and my brother for going outside to play while they took their “siesta” because we would wake them up, supposedly we were very loud. the pic i have included with this entry is of me and my brother before going to school in madrid :)
