Finally!
Wow, I am finally writing my first post! The plan was to have it done about a month ago, as I was getting ready to leave Toronto, but 3 weeks I had to prepare for my departure were way too hectic! Anyway, finally here's a short introduction for all those wondering who I am or what this is all about:
Here's who I am: Zhenia, 25 years old, AIESEC Canada alumna, born and raised in Moscow, Russia, but have been living in Toronto, Canada for the past 8 years.
Here's why I got this blog: In February 2005, I was matched to a 1-year AIESEC traineeship in Hyderabad, India. While this is not the first time I travel or live overseas, this is by far the longest stay abroad for me (and in the country that is very different from those that I have visited so far) so I figured that this year will be well worth documenting...
Here's how you can help me with this blog: While I love writing, I also tend to procrastinate, especially when I have a lot to say/write... Sometimes I also tend to keep my thoughts to myself... So you think that I should be writing more or more often, feel free to send me an encouraging or angry e-mail, I'll appreciate it either way :) Oh, and I think I also need some technical assistance... e.g. how do I add links and subheadings to the blog sidebar..?

Congrats for making it to Hyderabad. I'm also working here in Jubilee Hills with one of AIESEC partners. So we can catsh up some day. Drop me an email to romas.mazeika@gmail.com. Maybe I will be able also to help you with your blog ;)
Welcome on board Zhenia... very nice to have you here. :)
yay! Zhenia is blogging too! Now, we have to get Candice to start writing. Best of luck and I will be the one sending the angry emails asking for details... I mean juicy details with cute indians and/or trainees ;)
hey baby, just wanted to say hi!
so happy for you!

welcome to the world of blogging. Sometimes it's weird to say so, you have more friends online than those around you!
just don't stop writting for too long as they will miss your presence!
hi, my name is Rita and I am the current VP MD for @Toronto. It's great to learn that alumni such as yourself are doing something so dynamic and fun abroad and fulfiling the AIESEC experience! best of luck with work and everything. take care!
Ms. Zhenia! :D
Welcome to nomadlife! I'll write you a very long email soon. I miss our lunch chats. Like Cynthia, i am also looking forward to hearing about those cute foreign guys ;)
miss you lots!
Welcome to India Zhenia! I look forward to many fun stories (and had I known you were in Hyderabad, I would have told you more about my time there!).
hey Zhenia!
You'll enjoy it there. I surely did although I was just travelling around for 2 months. You can check out some of my blog postings with my impressions while I was there :)
