About Me

Родился в Ленинграде и живу в САНКТ-ПЕТЕРБУРГЕ (слова "Минск, Беларусь" в анкете продиктованы невозможностью оплаты аккаунта российской картой).

Похоже, я путешествовал всегда. Путешествовал один. С женой. С женой и дочкой. С женой, дочкой и сыном. И... снова один.
Автостоп, яхта, своя машина, ноги, палатка, каучсерфинг, гостиница и... снова автостоп. Почему автостоп? Степень свободы, не сравнимая ни с чем!
Автор романа "Либертанго".

Music, Movies, and Books

Books?! I'm a writer, not a reader! ;))
Speaking seriously, literature is a huge part of my life. But whatever it is (song, movie or book) I’m always looking for the “divine spark” in it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've built a log house in the middle of the forest and lived there 3 years.
Crossed the Atlantic Ocean with a sailing boat.
Walked 900km Camino de Santiago.
Learned to dance Argentine Tango.
Wrote a novel.

Построил дом посреди леса своими руками и топором и жил в нём 3 года.

Пересек Атлантику на парусном катамаране.

Прошёл 900км по Пути Сантьяго.

Научился танцевать аргентинское танго.

Семь лет писал роман и наконец дописал! (и его читают)

Teach, Learn, Share

Могу научить азам Аргентинского танго

For sharing: the intangible and unspeakable but unique THING, obtained by living in the forest and traveling places, drinking and smoking, meditating and fasting, driving and hitchhiking, being the part of the family and staying along, observing events and analyzing experience - by living MY life.
