ABOUT ME

I'm Russian, although I wasn't born there and actually grew up all around the world before my parents settled in New Zealand in the late 90's. I went to school there and then ran a software company for a couple of years before deciding to move to California and become a student again. I've now graduated and moved to Auckland, New Zealand, spending my second summer in a row traveling and working part-time in marketing.

I love adventure, high adrenaline sports, bungy jumping, skydiving - but it's only worth doing if I can share the experience together with a few friends. I like to spontaneously travel around the world and enjoy the company of open minded people .. strange and wonderful people particularly.
