ABOUT ME

hey there!

Cutting right to the chase, I am happy to host ppl from all over the world :) So if u ever coming to Moscow (thats where I am currently residing), feel free to drop me a message:)

I am a chill, laid back kinda person, being friendly and open-minded, I tend to take a positive approach to life and people i meet, I also tend to idealize people somehow :)

I love getting intellectual and as I have been told am able to support any conversation.

TWO OF MY MAJOR HOBBIES:

I am into bar-tending and mixology (although I have never worked as a bartender, I collect stuff, and enjoy making various cocktails when friends are over) AND photography... As I see places through my camera and I could never feel complete without it, so, naturally, I carry it around everywhere I go taking tons of pics and my camera is both means and tools for me to explore new places and truly experience them.

Something I had on my fb that was designed to give some brief, random info about me :)

Each letter has got something to tell you in connection with my personality,

A - Alex is my name. Although my full name is Alexey, friends tend to call me just Alex.
B - Bar-tending - is one of my hobbies. I love mixing cocktails and making various sorts of drinks. I've got my own bar and use it whenever friends come over.
C - Coca-Cola has been my favorite drink ever since I tasted it.
D - Diving. I've done it once. Since then I have been dreaming of doing it again. Next time better, deeper, longer. in cleaner water.
E - East Point in Atlanta is special because of a childhood friend and because it feels like home!
F - French fries. I am absolutely crazy for French fries. Fiest served in McDonalds are amongst my favorites. Besides fries I don't eat a eat a lot of their stuff, and precisely two large fries with coke compose my regular order at McDonalds.
G - Graduating. I am a law school gradate and I have enjoyed studying law. I am interested in pretty much anything that has to do with the law.
H - Honesty - a quality of a human being I appreciate most. I am afraid of dishonesty. I feel it is really scary how dishonest and insincere people can be at times.
I - international law is that what I have a particular interest in and would like to work with.
J - Japanese. During my early school years l I used to study Japanese. I've forgotten everything by now. But I can start over again someday.Both the language and culture fascinate me. Oh... I still can read Japanese letters. I'd love to learn Maltese as well. 
Spanish is also the language I used to speak but have forgotten a lot of. I think it’s the most beautiful language in the world. Wish I was more fluent, but I will get there!
K - (to be continued)
L - love is the most important thing I've experienced in my life. It does hurt but it also makes you fly. I think even if you have had it for a few moments you're considered a happy creature. Some people, I believe, never find this feeling. I'm happy I have had it and in some way still have it shining somewhere deep inside of me.
M - Malta is a very special country to me. You wouldn't know why it is so special unless you era close friend of mine, but it is. Probably changed the whole my life at the point, and still has it changing.
N - Nationality - its all very complicated, we move onto the next one here :P Let me just say, it has always been difficult when it comes to self-identification having been exposed to two very different cultures as I was growing up.
O - Overexcited. I am getting overexcited very quickly, but some people say it's a bad trait to have. Some see it as a necessary part of being a creative person.
P - photos, pictures. Big part of my life. I am a photographer and that explains everything. I love doing landscape photography, and giving my friends photo-shoots.
Q - Questions. I ask lots of questions, different sorts of questions. Some people can't stand me asking so many questions, but I am just being curious and for some reason never shy to ask them. I am always hungry for information and in order to get it I’ve got to ask. My philosophy is: Those who never ask, never learn. I like another saying too: Ask me no question I'll tell you no lie. :-)
R - Richard. I've got an old friend of mine who I am sure about he'd never betray me, and he is my dog!
S - Snakes. I love these little, really cute and amazing creatures. I loved all reptiles as a child, I love them as an adult. A lot of people hate them or grossed out by them for some reason and it makes me sad? Not only are they naturally beautiful, with all the patterns and colors that mother nature provided them with, but also a serpent, or snake, is one of the oldest and most widespread mythological symbols. It symbolizes wisdom, healing powers and opportunities. I used to have my own pet snake named Bonaparte and he was a Boa Constrictor. 
T - Traveling. I am really into it. I am not yet a great traveler though. I feel there’s always a room for improvement in my travel department. As of 2015 I’ve traveled to more than 20 US States, Mexico, Costa Rica, Russia, France, Malta, Italy, Egypt, Emirates, Singapore, Australia.
V - is the letter that one surname of a very special person begins with. Or rather it was, as I am editing this biography 7 years later I feel it’s time to finally let go and erase this particular association for V. But I stop and I don't do it, for they may no longer be as special, and may not even be part of my present nor will they ever constitute my future, but it got me where I am now and has forever played its role in shaping me into the person I am now.. Erase it? I am just not quite there yet.
W - wedding - is something my mom thinks I’ll never have. lol
X - Xlendi is a place in Gozo, Malta in which I endured and enjoyed the most awful and happiest moments of my life ever. These moments had been overlapping each other with the light speed.
Y - Young. I look younger then I actually am and always feel young. That’s what people say. I quite content with the fact.
Z - Zellveger, Renee - my favorite actress.
