I don't like small talk. Please, let's get straight to our conversation :)

CURRENT MISSION

- Change the world to be more compassionate, expressive, progressive, creative, and WHOLE one interaction at a time.

- Creating a supporting community in Taganrog for artists, travelers, and anyone, really!

ABOUT ME

I love meeting interesing new people. :)
Apparently I'm a bit of character collector, as I always befriend the most interesting types! (learned this while discussing such endeavors with two of my other character collector friends)
I am open, friendly, mostly positive, and pretty easy going [except maybe in the mornings - I may be a tad cranky and quiet when I first wake up...or if I'm really tired and want to sleep]

I enjoy eco conscious systems and things. Such lovely innovations that make it easier to live in tune with nature lately!

I love creating art in many different expressions of it! I love dancing; designing and, sometimes, making clothes; drawing, painting; building in any sort of 3D mediums (always looking for more instruction on variations of that); wire wrapping crystals; wire work; finally learning to DJ & produce music; producing; participating in creating photoshoots and live art performances.

I am originally from Taganrog, Russia
I've been living in the states for over a half of my life now. I am hoping to move to a new place soon :)

PHILOSOPHY

Just do YOUR best at the time! Your best will change depending on circumstances, moment to moment. You don't need to compete with anyone but yourself.

People over profit

Leave it better than you found it

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

It's the best way to see the world - stay with a local, live the local life for a bit, get a feel for the place.
And, of course, you make great friends along the way! You get to know people much faster, living in their home.

Once I have a place that allows for surfers I will start hosting travelers myself

兴趣

I listen to anything from dubstep, drum&bass, breaks, trance, trap, 60s hippie rock, idm, downtempo, psychill, disco, punk, darkwave, etc. I like psychedelic tones of music..
I LOVE dancing to bass music.

I like books in areas of philosophy, theosophy, spirituality, and alternative medicines.
A couple of great ones are 'The Four Agreements' and 'The Art of Loving'

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Burning man! (not a festival, btw - even says so on their website)

Moved to Hawaii last year during quarantine for 4 months to get away from the cold and concrete boring

教，学，和分享

I can give you pointers on clothing construction, show you some stretches for specific aches you may have, and share any knowledge I've picked up along the way on alternative medicine, natural foods, event world, commercial+fashion photography & makeup, astrology, crystals, etc.

I LOVE learning
Art, creation, healing arts, and acrobatics are my top intriguing areas of study. Also building, sustainability, spiritual practices, uncommon skills for everyday living, etc.
