Although I was born in Chelyabinsk, a Russian city in Ural region I have lived there only for 5 years. Mostly I have been living in Moscow over 15 years. The best description of my personality would be friendly, wise, kind, and committed. Even though people say that I am wise, Istill like trying to do different risky sports and learn those I like the most such as Taekwan-do, mountbiking, snowboarding or water skiing. I like to communicate with people and build friendships with different communities and individuals. Also, I like travelling and exploring different cultures because it is exciting and meaningful to get to know diverse values and traditions. I always try to search for impactful and life changing experiences , so I could be that change for other people.
