My friends think that I live in a wild, cycle in a mountains and travel all the time. Hovever, it's not all true :) I love nature, mountains and my bike, but mostly time (if not travelling far) I just stay at home in front of my computer, working with photos I took in traveling, or spend time with friends in my hometown. Music is important part of my life as well:) - I like to build complex routes of travel with mountain expeditions. - 29 countries - 70000+ km hitchhiking - 60+ mountain hikes in 14 countries of the world - my photos http://35photo.ru/alexeymedvedev - inst https://www.instagram.com/viterally/
