CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I'm here because of two reasons. As all of you here, I like to travel and meet new people.

I don't like to write about myself, but here's what my friends say about me: easygoing, funny, friendly, curios, crazy in a good way and super responsible!

I'm lucky, cause my work connected with travels - I'm editor of travel column in gloss.ua and author of http://www.columbus-chocolate.com - project and travel blog about USA.

Music, Movies, and Books

My mother is a cinema critic. So, me and cinema have known each other for a long time. My favorite director is François Ozon. Plus i really like Pedro Almadovar, Bernardo Bertolucci, Lars von Trier and Alejandro González Iñárritu. Woody Allen is also good.
I really like french movies. Audrey Tautou, Eva Green and Marion Cotillard are my favorite actresses.
Music is another story, not connected with parents))) I like rock music in all it's forms. I love to look for new music bands every day and to find really cool and not popular bands. Despite my love to rock music, I can listen almost everything.
If we're talking about books, I would say that it is Catcher in the Rye Jd Salinger and The Master and Margarita, M.Bulgakov. It is first two books, which come to my mind in first moments of book's conversation. Further I would say, that I like Erich Maria Remark, Truman Capote, Chuck Palahniuk and Gabriel Garsia Markes, Jack Kerouac and Frédéric Beigbeder
