About Me

ABOUT ME

Living is changing. My greatest interest is learning - new skills, new people, new places and new ideas. I'm 100% sure that happiness is always inside ourselves and my aim in life is to learn how to be happy. Which is rather a challenge at 7 a.m. on Monday for example)))

CURRENTLY NOT HOSTING.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hard to choose one actually... I like my jobб for me it's amazing :)
For example
- performed fire show as special guest before 4000 people in Vladivostok on the International Fire Festival "Ogni Vostoka" (2014)
- studied kite surfing, snowboarding and horse riding during 1 month (2014)
- been a model in the International Body Painting Festival in Austria (2011)
- travelled from Krasnodar to Rostov-on-Don - Moscow - Antalia - Bodrum during 24 hours (that was HARD, really))
and so on :)

Teach, Learn, Share

If you are studying Russian or English I will be happy to help you practice your skills. In my turn I'm interested in Italian, French and German.

I'm a professional fire performer and if you are interested in it, I can show you some cool tricks. Especially I like fire fans and sometimes even give workshops.

I've started playing the guitar, but really don't have much time for it. So I'll be happy to hear you playing and maybe you could teach me something :)
