About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travelling through life and world. Have always worked abroad different professions. Will never stop travelling and learning from people whom i meet on my way.

ABOUT ME

I am very openminded person.This is what people discover first when them meet me.
I am from Ukraine, Kharkov. Since university times I've been working abroad. Starting from Work and Travel program, then worked for Princess Cruises and now i am in China and my life trip is still not over.
Currently i am an artist in Shanghai.
I am a poet and a writer. All the world around me inspires me to create.
I really miss home, but each time I come back there I feel that I miss my other home, which is called World.

PHILOSOPHY

I have several tattoos. Each one can tell something about me. One is "carpe diem" which means "live now, catch the moment, live in a moment". So whatever happens I try not to bother about past, not to worry about future, but take the opportunity to be happy in the moment. Life is so short.
Another one says "species motionum", which in Latin means "spices of emotions". This is totally my philosophy. I am sure that emotions in our lives are like spices to food.
I am discovering myself everyday. Looking forward to new beginnings.
