About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To create the life I want to live!

ABOUT ME

I'm Russian with Western mentality who loves dancing to Latin music and adores Asian nature and beaches...
I love trying new things and going to places I've never been to. I love visiting friends in other corners of our planet.
Friendships and relationships is what I value more than anything.
I think part of my life mission is to promote and develop international cooperation and friendships by any means I can.
That's why together with a friend of mine we created a project Guru Languages - an online school for learning foreign languages and not only ;)

PHILOSOPHY

Expect more than others think is possible.
Dream more than others think is practical.
Risk more than others think is safe.
Care more than others think is wise.
