CURRENT MISSION

No grand mission at the moment. Creating more nice experiences and capturing them on my camera.

ABOUT ME

I am Russian-American-Jewish person who lived half of his life in Russia and half in US with a short stint in Israel. Other than Russian and Israel I traveled to St.Lucia, Europe and locally in US, and lived in NYC. My main hobbies are running, chess and photography. If I had one more life to live I would become historian.Classical history, Roman Empire and military history of particular interests to me. Looking forward to more local travels and longer trip in Spring 2015.
