CURRENT MISSION

Live while alive

ABOUT ME

I'm interested in everything, believe in wonders and have my point of view on any topic.

As a child I wanted to be a pirate - nothing has really changed since that times, because I still love adventures and new experiences))) I'm more introverted: crowd of unknown people can make me nervous, but I can talk over the day with an interesting person, drinking tea and forgetting about the time.

My job usually connected with writing – I worked as journalist in jewelry magazine, wrote theater reviews and articles about American literature. Currently I move to another country, so work distantly as copywriter.

What's more...
My name is Serafima and it is quite rarely even for Russia. If you do not want break your tongue, you can call me Sima, Fima or invent your own version=)
