Hello! My name is Svetlana and I'm from Siberia. I'm half-Yakutian, quarter-Buryat, and a quarter Tuvan. I was born and raised in a small village near the forest where my family has lived for generations. My ancestors were nomadic herders who followed their animals across the tundra.
Growing up, I was always fascinated by the traditional clothing and jewelry of the indigenous peoples of Siberia. As a child, I would dress up in my mother's old wedding dresses and pretend to be a princess from ancient times.
When I turned 18, I moved to the city to pursue my dream of becoming a model. It was tough at first, but I eventually caught the attention of some top agencies. Now, I travel all over the world for shoots and fashion shows.
Despite my success in the industry, I always feel a sense of longing for my roots. Sometimes, I miss the simplicity of village life and the beauty of the Siberian wilderness. But no matter where I go or what I do, a part of me will always be that little girl playing dress-up in her mother's clothes.
