About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Having the best time in my life

ABOUT ME

I adore nature, animals, i could easily live in the countryside, without "city advantages" such as fashionable clothes, parties, warm and comfortable flat with hot water and electricity. Probably one day i'll give up Moscow.
Another passion of me is social dance. It is when dance can be danced with a variety of partners. At the moment i'm studying tango, And i'm quite an expert in hustle.
And my third big love are art house movies. I can’t watch all this main stream rubbish, I prefer the films with Author and with Audience. Such pieces of art change you forever, enrich you.
And of course travelling. It would be really sad if I couldn’t travel to another countries at least two times a year. The moment when you get out of the plane and see the new country in the first time are full of magic! I like exploring new food, new climate, new landscapes and culture!!!

At the moment i work in the best theatre of Moscow, i'm an assistant of the art-manager. My previous work was kids tv-channel.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My brightest
impression was when i first flew on a plane. It was just amazing when i saw the
snow-white, feather-light clouds and picture-like, brown-green earth
underneath.
