Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To travel around the world meeting as many interesting people as i can, Because... we travel not to escape life, but for life not to escape us…
ABOUT ME
I grew up in Tbilisi, Georgia. When i was 13 my parents decided to move to Kazakhstan.
in my last year of high school i went to the States as an exchange student for a year. the experience that I'll never forget! :)
Later i came back, went to the university here, graduated, worked, and then got bored... applied for bunch of scholarships and gt one at Columbia University. Ended up living in New York city for 3 years-- now it's the love of my life. yes, very much cliche, but I LOVE NY ! :)
Now Im back to Kazakhstan, where it's absolutely nothing like whatever Borat tells us it is haahhaaha
about myself i can say that Im funny and outgoing, though i can be a stubborm perfectionist. I love to laugh and dance, paint and do crafts, especially making hand-made gifts for my friends. I love dogs. I go to the movies at least once a week. I read all Harry Potter Books 3 times, and no, Im not crazy, i just like the way they are written. Purple color is my favorite
PHILOSOPHY
i strongly believe that there is no end to what i can dream about, no limit to what i can do or achive if i just believe that i can do it :)
