CURRENT MISSION

Being a part-time international grasshopper

ABOUT ME

I spent 2/3 of my life in Russia and 1/3 in US. Last year I started to travel internationally again after quite a long break. Love random and unique experiences - but then who doesn't? Amateurishly enjoy fine arts, opera and ballet. Can make yogurt and shaving cream, so there is some hope for me in a zombie apocalypse. I have been pretending to learn Japanese for quite some time with very little to show for it (25 kanji memorized, 1975 to go)
