Music, Movies, and Books

The XX, The Cardigans, Rag'n'Bone, Davide Martello, Three Days Grace, Aretha Franklin, Beatles, Anathema... My tastes is really differ in music. I like to hear live sound and concerts and latin music for dance.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I jumped with parachute from 4 000 meters.
I have a spontaneous trip to UAE with wonderful peoples.
I’m flying at Spain and living here for a month.

Teach, Learn, Share

Now I try to refresh my “Oxford-Cambridge” (sarcasm) English and start to study Spanish.

In Russian I can talk for ages about:
* technology (PC, phones, acoustic systems, cameras, programs - hard and software; I can reinstall your Windows omg 🤓);
* theatre (I admire classical stages by Shakespeare, Dostoevsky, Gogol, Gugo and something fresh - for example, Flowers for Algernone by Keyes);
* literature (Daniel Keyes, Eric Maria Remarque, Nikolay Starikov, history of Russian revolution, Ray Bradbury, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Ernest Hemingway);
* music/live concerts (Ludovico Einaudi, Fabrizio Paterlini, Bi-2, Imagine Dragons, Bring me the Horizon, Notre Dame de Paris, Phantogram, Linkin Park and etc.);
* films (7 pounds, 5 centimeters per second, Green mile, Cloud Atlas, Theory of Everything, Blake swan, Awake, Crash, Amely, Hatico, Samba, 1+1(Untouchables), Dog’s life, Interstellar, The Prestige, The Dressmaker, Forrest Gump and so on. Marvel and DC Universe also like too);
*interesting facts about our body, biology and astronomy (my mother is a teacher of physics and astronomy - in my childhood we sought the constellation of the northern hemisphere and it was warm memories, stars forever in my heart).

And now if you are interested in any points above - I’ll try to tell about it in English.
Dear Lord, thank you for Google translator.
My vocabulary in English not so wide as in Russian. 😅

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my time, tasty coffee at morning, telling stories about Moscow and other Russian cities (my father is military man and I saw many places at Russia).
And, of course, I fall in love with my work and Excel (books by John Walkenbach) and can teach you some features. I can also teach how to make sushi/rolls. It’s a strange skills set, but I named this uniqueness. 😁
BTW, my superskill is kindness.
I really like people. I’ll try to see it’s best part of soul and attitude to them as my family members.
