Overview
About Me
I was born in the north of Russia, spent childhood in Uzbekistan, studied a year in Mosсow and finally moved to Saint-Petersburg, a beauteous city without sun.
I used to:
- play piano
- play domra (Russian folk instrument)
- participate in Russian-folk orchestra
- play volleyball
- study French
- study Japanese
And have quit all of this.
Professionally I'm busy with texts and content. I am a happy owner of a remote job. So I usually work during traveling.
I prefer to travel alone. I feel enthusiasm for trees, plants, animals, some kind of humans. I love to buy new books but read them as slowly as it possible. I can spend a day in a museum. I speak nice Russian, so-so English, awful French and null Japanese.
I'm eager to get know new persons but can be bashful sometimes. And can be not.
Music, Movies, and Books
Music: from Soviet bands and classical composers to modern electronic musicians. I often listen oto-radio.ru
Movies: a lot! I like movies of Fellini, Kaurismäki, Hitchcock, Alain Resnais, Kubrick
Book: almost all Russian classic, Marcel Proust, Vladimir Nabokov, Marguerite Yourcenar
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
