Iliana Raykovski, professionally known as Ili Ray, hails from the culturally rich nation of Bulgaria, where her life was forever changed by the profound influence of her father's handmade instruments. As the daughter of a renowned string instrument business in Chicago, Iliana grew up surrounded by the melodic sounds and intricate craftsmanship of her family's esteemed establishment.
In contrast, her Hollywood experience was marked by a sense of innocence and naivety, as she struggled to comprehend the fast-paced and often bewildering nature of the entertainment industry. Now, as a resident of Los Angeles, Iliana finds herself constantly pondering the curious phenomenon of people rarely walking anywhere, instead opting for the convenience of motorized transportation.
Furthermore, her quest for gastronomical delights in the City of Angels has led her to wonder where the elusive "good delis" might be hiding, and whether the pursuit of such culinary treasures is a Sisyphean task or a genuine quest for gastronomic enlightenment.
