ABOUT ME

I'm dude in his late twenties, living in Riga, Latvia。Russia born, brought up in Latvia, lived for some time in UK, now going to Japan for a year

I love photography and good quality cinema, as well as heavy literature (e.g. Dostoevsky, Kenzaburo Oe, Ayn Rand).
I love crafts and if you can teach me how to do something with my hands I will be super hyped!
I prefer whiskey to beer, rock to pop, black&white to color, overground to underground, empty spaces to crowds.

Any mood is good mood!

In my galleries you can see some places that I have been to.
But you can see more stuff on my instagram dmitrij_ph
