Russian born “IT” girl, and our lovely Miss May 2017, Lada Kravchenko is determined to have you on the edge of your seat at all times — that’s just the way she enjoys life. “Security is the most boring thing on earth for me,” she says. “I just want adventures all the time.” Born in Moscow and now living in New York City, this gorgeous blonde Playmate is sweet, daring, humble and smart. The self-proclaimed “nerd,” models of course, but she also works in tech. “I studied computer technology, so I was the only girl in my whole class in college,” she laughs. “I’m a programmer. Yeah, database systems — that’s my profession. I told you I’m a nerd!” Her second profession just speaks to how down-to-earth and normal this stunning model really is. “Many girls judge themselves harshly because they look at other people on Instagram and think, ‘She’s living the perfect life.’ Nobody lives a perfect life,” she says bluntly. Though her life isn’t perfect, it is exciting. A lover of travel and culture, she’s called cities like Paris, Milan, Hong Kong and more, home. “Where to next? Number one is India,” she tells us. “I want to explore. I’m trying to pitch it to every single editor, but they’re like, ‘let’s do the Bahamas,” she sighs.
