Jumping between different activities in life: been playing music for over 12 years now; lived in Estonia and studied filmmaking there for 4 years, therefore shot some films, music videos; came back to Russia and started a pub quiz game here, keep making music videos.

Didn't quite formulate one yet, but the "Live and let live" one is pretty close.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Got into it while studying in Estonia, hosted a few guests from different countries and the experience turned out to be great! Now that I moved back to Russia I sadly don't have an opportunity to host people. But looking forward to be hosted by someone else when I finally go out travelling . I find it quite exciting and uplifting to meet and get to know new interesting people. And I prefer to experience new places by interacting with the locals and trying to get a taste of their lives, rather than staying in a hotel and visiting only tourist attractions where everything is made for you to spend money.

Music, Movies, and Books

Good story and some drama is what I seek in movie or a book: "Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind" and "Fear And Loathing In Las-Vegas" are good examples.
Music gets me, when it's sincere and raw, genre may differ: Arctic Monkeys, Shpongle, Pink, Children Of Bodom, etc.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Went to Vipassana meditation course: took an oath of silence and meditated for about 9 hours a day for 10 days.
Made a full feature documentary about a music band I eventually ended up playing with.

Teach, Learn, Share

I think, that the only thing that determines the way world treats us is our attitude towards it and ourselves.
