About Me

I'm a bit shy, but I love meeting people of different cultures and backgrounds

Interests

I love taking photos! And I love experiencing new places. I say experiencing because it's the ultimate best way to travel. Meet some locals, do what they do. Don't limit yourself to the usual touristy paths. Have a coffee and a croissant for breakfast in Paris. Drink beer in Prague. Ride a bike in Amsterdam. Get in the subway in the rush hour; feed pigeons; talk to strangers; get a one way ticket.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I will never forget my father's face when we got to the top of the Eiffel Tower. Imagine a man in his 50s who spent most of his life (and his entire youth) in USSR, behind the iron curtain. Eiffel tower for him was someting ephemeral, something he'd never ever thought he'd be able to experience. When we were up there he was nearly crying, it was so hard to believe for him he was actualy on THE Eiffel Tower.

For me it's the perfect story of dreams. Even if you never expect something to come true, keep on dreaming. Amazing things happen!
