Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to a lot of downtempo (some of the bands: Royksopp, Gotan Project, Shapeshifter, Sound Providers, FC Kahuna), lots of pop and Coldplay! I watch good movies. I read a lot of fiction. Mythology is my favorite.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I produced a Sprite film for Coca-Cola and premiered it at CinemaCon in Las Vegas in front of Christopher Nolan. It was pretty amazing.

Teach, Learn, Share

I enjoy sharing about Turkmenistan and the Turkmen culture. I love touring and showing new and exciting places where I live! I can teach you how to dance ballroom: cha-cha, samba, salsa, rumba, jive, waltz, viennese waltz, quickstep - I did it competitively. I would love to learn about your culture, traditions, language, food, etc!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am a pretty good cook, I think. Would love to make a cool dish for you from my country. Also, I don't snore!
