About Me

Designer, trainer. entrepreneuer, musician, blogger, I can also call my self a citizen of the world. Enthusiastic, friendly...

I grew up in Tbilisi, Georgia. studied Communications in Ankara, Turkey and been via Erasmus in Vilnius, Lithuania and that was awesome! It's really good to combine work, education and traveling. Have traveled around Europe in 2012 and continue traveling the world.

I love playing guitar, piano, once I even tried to play on organ. I also tried to play many different traditional instruments which was a little bit weird. And I totally want to get hang instrument.

I love visiting different places and discovering things with friends or by myself. I dislike tour-guide-guys as they tell what you must see, I like to find that out for my self, or if a friend tells me. Sometimes I'm spontaneous... I like swimming in the rain, and even at nights, it gets little bit creepy and that what it makes me feel more than alive!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

1. First time when I went to Kazbegi, Georgia at an elevation of 2170 meters. It was awesome feeling being surrounded by huge, giant mountains.
2. 3-days-hiking-trip in Borjomi mountains with friends. It was unforgettable experience and feeling living in the woods with no industrial civilization around you. It was just me and friends face to face with nature.
3. Tried paragliding in Pamukkale, Turkey. I've been 10 mins in the sky!
