I am a friendly and cheerful girl from Russia. I was born on the north of the country and then lived in Saint Petersburg for 5 years. Currently, I am doing my Master's in Europe and study in a different country every semester.

Music, Movies, and Books

Films: Amelie, This is England

Books: J. Gaarder “the Orange Girl”, J. R. R. Tolkien “the Lord of the Rings”, George Orwell “1984”, Aldous Huxley “Brave New World”, Charlotte Bronte “Jane Eyre”

Music: I’ve been listening to a lot of indie rock music since I was a teenager (Foals, Bombay Bicycle Club, Paramore, Arctic Monkeys, Two Door Cinema Club etc.). However, during the last couple of years I’ve been mostly into various electronic music (Jon Hopkins, Clark, Burial, Röyksopp, Disclosure, Flume, Tourist, Kaytranada). Among other genres, I really enjoy dream pop, synth pop, post-punk, shoegaze, hip-hop, jazz and funk. 80s music will always be my absolute favourite as well.
