When I was a child I dreamed of becoming a traveler. During my childhood, I went on hikes, learned how to swim, went horse riding. I wanted to be like Indiana Jones, adventurous, brave, resourceful… I entered the Faculty of History, where I studied archaeology, history of art, ethnology and others subjects. After the university, I started working at the National Art Museum as a researcher in department of foreign art. I explored the oriental art. During my days at the museum as an orientalist, I was often in contact with subjects of art from eastern countries, where they were “born”. The goal of every researcher is to understand any subject that comes into their hands. Soon, I started traveling east. Uzbekistan, Iran, South Korea, Georgia, became my favorite countries. Good people, interesting cultures, delicious cuisine, and at one point I realized that for me traveling was more interesting than to work in one place.
