About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Suuurf the life!

ABOUT ME

I'd like to be a "sitizen of the world", 'cause I'm really a travel addict. I like hiking, travelling on my bicycle, climbing mountains. I enjoy discovering beautiful places, especially remote and natural, and meet different people.
I wish I had more time for it...

PHILOSOPHY

Happiness is a jorney, not a destination

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm not a great movie-fan, but I like Kusturica crasy romanic films, especilaly Life is a Miracle. Always cry watching Amelie. And must see is Knockin' On Heaven's Door (not a rare choise, isn't it?)
I cannot say I like some special type of music. I like rock-n roll when I feel like energetic, reggae, mellow or ambient when relaxed, blues or even french chanson when I feel lyric.
And the books with lots of inner struggle like ones by Hemingway, Remark, Maugham

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I think the most amazing and challenging thing, I have ever done was the climb to the Mt. Belukha (4500m) in the Altay mountains, Russia. Nothing can compare to such an experience.
I freerided the breathtaking canyons of the Mt. Elbrus.
And of course I began to drtive a car! (it is very amazing, provided I was really afraid of it :))
Won a silver medal in a real bicycle competition among women (where two women participated :)
