Music, Movies, and Books

Played piano in my childhood. I like to listen to guitar, piano musik. I am a chief of youth Outhor Song Studio (l have a guitar at home, but cannot play it myself)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Once, coming to the Outhor Songs Festival, I saw that people can live in a wonderful world of travellings, festivals, sport, but not only in washing their own house and going to work and become to live in such a way in my 45 years old. Since that time my life became so interesting! In 2018 I went to Germany and back to Ukraine by hitchhiking (autostop). In 2019 I traveled by hitchhiking from Ukrainian and Poland border to France. It was wonderful!
