One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It was an amazing exprerience to work as a teacher of Russian to foreigners. I spent 4 months doing it and think that I've never had a job better than this before.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach Russian.
And as I am always craving for something new, I like to listen to people and learn things from them (and learn people, of course).
I can share my knowledge of music, literature, cinema, help in cooking and share some recipes, perhaps, as well
