About Me

CURRENT MISSION

keep calm and travel the world

ABOUT ME

Hi! I'm 28, working in Opera & Ballet Theatre as a lighting board operator. So we can talk through some opera & ballet perfomances :)
I am a visual person, so I like all kind of visual art: lightning installations, photography, but most of all - painting. My dad was an artist, I'm trying to be, making some sketches & wishing to make something bigger one day.

If I decide to go to your country, I'll learn everything I can find about it, cause I like to discover new cultures from hosts!

I'm fond of the unusual: art, movies, events & places. So sometimes I have this itching under my skin - it's a call for travelling. So I do. I've had a crazy trip all over Iceland, hot two weeks in Italy with my best mates, lonely trip to Berlin in the winter... I'm looking forward for another adventures!

PHILOSOPHY
I believe in karma.
