Présentation
À propos de moi
=GUYS I'M SORRY BUT AT THE MOMENT I'M NOT IN NIZHNY AS I WORK IN THE FAR NORTH=
CURRENT MISSION
Explore, learn, make friends, see everything I haven't seen yet , experience everything I have guts for or get guts to experience it, simply live and enjoy every moment.
ABOUT ME
Positive, energetc, eager to learn and explore, to meet new people and share something we all have in common - desire to open the world. With this desire driving my life one day I found myself beyond the polar circle (Sabetta, google it ;) where I'm still working as an interpreter and translator, surrounded by 800km of pure Tundra, which is so diverse, that I'd tell you everything in person rather than just describing it here.
PHILOSOPHY
Without experiencing you will never learn. Without trying you will never experience.

I'm a surfer mostly, not experienced, but still...
Centres d'intérêt
First of all - traveling, of course, but I guess it's not the interest, it's the way of life. Listing everything will take too much time. Put simply, I'm interested in everything from photography to swimming with crocodiles.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue
One thing? I don’t really fancy that sort of limitation… The wonders of my life range from waking up to the sound of rain against my tent in the desert on the 1st of January to making best friends with someone I knew only for three days which was pretty enough for both of us (thank you couchsurfing by the way!). Driving from the Siwa oasis in the back of an old rusty truck with gasoline tanks driven by an old Egyptian dude who didn’t know a word of English with three other crazy awesome people along the Libyan border through all the military posts with a smile and fake passes. Oh what a story… Or traveling by local buses and trains through India with all its wonders, couchsurfing in Bombay with a Bollywood actor and his slave (kidding) – the story that ended up like a true Bollywood movie with drama and almost dancing elephants, jealous wife and fake accounts on facebook to stalk me; getting my nose pierced by and old Indian woman with dirty hands and a drop of sanitizer, just like this in one of the streets of Udaipur for free, twice; drinking bhang-lassi in Varanasi and then going by boat along the Ganges at night, tripping and falling in love with the place to the music of the beating oars and barking dogs; being the first one to enter Taj Mahal in order to have it only for myself; meeting sunrises on tops of mountains, and seeing the sun rolling in the seas; sleeping in haunted houses; getting lost in the old city of Jerusalem for 10 hours after arguing with my best friend and then finding ourselves in the very place of our argue just to reach the revelation… Learnt diving in Dahab; drank Malibu on the titty-like rooftop of an old hammam in Istanbul; tried to see Hagia Sophia.. 5 times failed, and so on… So believe me, we will have a lot of stories to tell each other!
Enseignez, apprenez, partagez
I can teach you something about Russian, and not only the swear words, which is quite silly. I also wish to destroy stereotypes and wipe out boundaries if there are any.
I want to learn everything about the way you live, where you live, what you live, and like a sponge grasp everything you wish to share.
