Documents: No such file or directory

I have just installed Ubuntu, but I cannot use it because it seems like I do not have any files, even Documents. Do you have any idea why I cannot see any files?
talina@DESKTOP:~$ pwd
/home/talina
talina@DESKTOP:~$ ls
talina@DESKTOP:~$ cd Documents
-bash: cd: Documents: No such file or directory
command-line bash

Did you install the "Desktop" (GUI) version of Ubuntu - or the "Server" version?

Mar 25 at 2:07
Tryls -al
to see any hidden files. And basically the same Q as steeldriver, is there a GUI? Did you create the talina user yourself, withadduser
oruseradd
, or did the installer?

@Xen2050 it does not change anything when i use ls -al. I am using the server version. I created the username during the installation; Ubuntu asked me for a user name and a password

The Documents, Downloads etc. directories are not populated in Ubuntu server installs - you can create any directories you wish manually using themkdir
