ABOUT ME

I'm originally from Belarus, raised in Virginia, and now trying to comprehend living (anywhere but) in the Big Easy. I like meeting opinionated and passionate people, goofy people with perspective, nice dogs, and serious talkers. I'm looking for any opportunity to climb, to sweat, to talk, to move, to stop, to be still, to listen, to grow, to look, to watch, to be moved.

I love food, sitting on stoops, petting strangers cats when no one is looking, winking at strangers cats when no one is looking, winking at strangers when no one is looking, cases of mistaken identities, making piles of food and eating them with my hands, circusclownmimes, unpredictable circumstances, and sometimes moving in circles.

Sometimes when I wake up I find myself facing one of two irrational fears - in one I am a cartoon character. In the other, a dog.
