CURRENT MISSION

Figure out why I'm on this planet

ABOUT ME

Hey everyone!
I'm Polina, a 20-year-old who's been living pretty nomadic lifestyle (growing up in Asia, finishing school in Russia, studying and working in Scandinavia and now Germany) and is not going to settle, because there are just too many things out there to see.

Most of all I love live music (my version of Heaven would be a never-ending Glasto), new cities, and great stories.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teach, Learn, Share

Learning a bit of Russian never hurts! I also know plenty of random and weird facts (sadly, they stick in my head much better than German grammar), so if you want to know how an eye developed, or what material the Holy Grail was supposedly made of, or how the peace symbol was invented... well, you name it.
