CURRENT MISSION To be open-minded ABOUT ME I was born in Leningrad, USSR. I never changed my hometown, but this city and this country not exist now. I live in St. Petersburg and I believe it's the best city to live in Russia. I finished local BSTU university as a radio engineer and very proud about it. But I work in a bit different field, as a process engineer. Also I studied as a photojournalist. I wanted to be photographer for some geographic magazines. After finishing university I spent 1 year in Israel. The plan was to photograph some good photo stories. It was the best part of my life. I like this country a lot and visit it sometimes. I met lots of interesting people, spent days with Samaritans, Drouzes, Bedouins and others. There I learned my English and Hebrew. When I came back to Russia I decided to be an engineer again.
