Hola! Čau! Hey! Привет! Labas! If you need advice or help in Riga, Latvia (my hometown), Lithuania (Kaunas, my second hometown) or Valencia, Spain (where I live 7-8 months a year), then write to me and I will try to do and help as best I can. ☺️

My name is Julian Trofimov. I am an average (or maybe not) guy from Latvia who is still on the verge of achieving one of his primary goals in life – to be happy. I am a translator and an amateur photographer. I am happy to communicate and tolerant to all nationalities. A clear understanding of where one's headed – that's what, in my opinion, brings a person inner integrity and peace.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Having cleared up my passion and having imagined my dream life, I started to take action. I completed my bachelor's degree in Latvia and plucked up the courage to permanently move to Kaunas to study Literary Arts, Criticism, and Communication. Now I finally feel comfortable: I found an excellent job as a translator, and Kaunas inspired me to create – now I take photos, model, and plan photoshoots that carry important messages. My life has changed for the better, and I don't regret going all this way for my dream. In many situations, I had to step out of my comfort zone, and choose not the safest way, perhaps, but the one that will benefit my future.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach Baltic languages and tell you a little about photography. I've always been interested in learning languages, philology, and literature. The secrets of Latvian, Lithuanian, Russian, and other languages from the same family, yet undiscovered, were always a particular interest of mine. Therefore, I decided to study Baltic Philology at the University of Latvia.
This journey has taught me to control my fears, and I can now say that they no longer rule me. There is strength in every person, and we are often more capable than we think, whereas hardships don't necessarily indicate that life is terrible as often here, in these times, the most profound things are born.
