I grew up in Tomsk, Russia;
spent 2 amazing years in South Korea and have been living in Seattle for 10+ years.

Currently I am travelling around the world.
I visited about 20 countries - but there are so many interesting places I'd like to visit!

教，学，和分享

I can teach you to dance Brazilian zouk,
or we can play Go game (also known as Baduk ot Weichi) - it is ancient oriental game like chess.

If you want to know a little bit about programming, I can share my ideas on - is it a good idea to become a developer. Or, we can write short fun program in Python together.

I spent some time in conducting coding interviews while working in Microsoft and Facebook - so - I can do a mock interview.
And... certainly... I can talk for ages about traveling and the places I've visited.
