Wandered on my own in a country without knowing the local language, but was never alone and could communicate. Climbed a volcano in sneakers. Pure adventure.

Music - I played guitar in several bands, still playing it at home for fun. Languages - doors to other worlds. Philosophy - a mind-opener and the prime mover. Climbing - an addiction I picked up on study in Germany. I was frustrated that there are not really any mountains around Moscow, so I went back to Germany, got culturally shocked, retreated to Czech Republic. Ice Hockey - always a pleasure to see a good game and to play with my friends or just random people once in a while.
