About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I'm trying to bring happiness to this world. Cause "sharing is caring" and "all you need is love", you know?)

ABOUT ME

Molecular biologist, fond of sports (at different moments of life it were capoeira, swimming, snowboarding, gym, running, yoga, contemporary dance, horseriding, acrobatics), outdoor festivals-mainly Woodstock-like, and new people. Some picks from my life, mainly yoga, at @kukuruzinko

PHILOSOPHY

We come to learn things and to share experience. Soul becomes lazy without new knowledge and people. i'm much happier if i could share, especially with people i love

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A sky full of stars in Krimea, when i slept in the hills in a sleeping bag in a drift of pine needles and a hedgehog came to see me

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you russian, yoga, share some of my professional experience or knowledge about Moscow, and can show how to cook some traditional russian food (even though i'm not a master of it)). I'd love to know more about your country, lifestyle, learn how to cook your traditional food (sorry, i love to eat)), and any other things you'd like to share with me)
