Hey, my name is Alex and i'm keen on traveling, meeting people, laughing and cooking.
When i've been in US in 2007 via Work&Travel program, i was a cook in "Route 66" restaurant, located in Bar Harbor, Maine. So, i knows american cuisine, russian and ukrainian as well and can cooking something tasty.
I like almost all type of sport: pool, running, snowboarding, mountain skiing, cross-country skiing (i was a professional sportsman in cross-country skiing when i was 16).
If talking about hobbies - my strive is to get interview of people. In my student past i had worked in a radio station for 2 years. So i have my own podcast in russian language about interesting people in North and South America. My podcast is called "Multi-storied America" and already has 86 episodes - interviews with different interesting people starting from students and till american professor from University of Southern California. Site of my podcast: www.m-amerika.ru

I will be glad to meet you too in my future trips.
