COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Surfed in Perm, hosted in Moscow and Washington DC, met folks in Syria, Jordan, Azerbaijan. Every time it was cool.

Intereses

For many years I used to work as a staff reporter in a big newspaper in Moscow but last year I applied to the University of Oxford, moved to the UK and started working on a PhD in cultural anthropology.
Despite this, I still feel like a dilettante with very artificial knowledge of every subject that I've ever learned, from philology and philosophy to history and sociology.
The only thing which I'm really good at is a table talk on any of these topics.

• writing
• books
• documentaries
• movies
• reading
• traveling
• anthropology
• geopolitics
• history
• journalism
• languages
• memory

Música, películas y libros

Books and music are the main things that make me happy. Impossible to list them all.
