Authorities in California are seeking the public’s help after a woman went missing while on a cross-country road trip that started in Florida.

Ganna Kovrizhynkh, 38, was first reported missing by a friend on July 12, according to a statement from the San Diego County Sheriff’s Office.

Friends and family members said that they last heard from Kovrizhynkh — who also goes by the name Angel Volnaya — on July 5, as she was driving through San Diego County. Soon after, her car and camper trailer were found unattended in Potrero, a rural part of the county.

The National Missing and Unidentified Persons System (NamUs) stated in its file that Kovrizhynkh’s mother received a photograph of a letter along with GPS coordinates in Potrero on July 5.

“The letter essentially provided instruction to give her personal assets to her mother. On July 12, Kovrizhynkh’s Jeep Grand Cherokee and camper trailer were found apparently abandoned near the 25000 block of Potrero Park Drive,” NamUs’ file states.

“We aren’t sure what her destination was,” Sgt. Jacob Klepach told NBC San Diego. “We believe she was just kind of touring the country and she left her vehicle in Potrero and never came back to her vehicle.”

“Kovrizhynkh’s current whereabouts and status are unknown,” the office wrote. “Sheriff’s detectives say it is possible she may have crossed the U.S./Mexico border into the Tecate area of Baja California, Mexico.”

The sheriff’s office and NamUs shared photos of Kovrizhynkh to help the public identify her. She has a number of tattoos on her arms and hands, per investigators, and she is 5 feet, 5 inches tall, weighing 100 pounds, with blond hair and blue eyes. She may be wearing a wig.

“We don’t really have any belief one way or another at this point if there is foul play involved or if she just strictly voluntarily left,” Klepach said.
