CURRENT MISSION

I am trying to look deeper, see what are causes and consequences, make my way in life clearer and more evident

ABOUT ME

I am deep, introspective individual. I love visual art , but not "too contemporary", although very bright concepts underneath simple construction or even text always strikes me right into the heart. I appreciate conceptual art a lot,as long I dont have to brake my brain too much. I have very deep interests in music, for the most parts electronic or experimental. Consequentially I enjoy real parties and true night club culture. Also literature is my another love. Lately I ve been into Modernism. Virginia Wools, Marcel Proust, John Fowles. Currently I am pouring coffee and searching for school to apply for Art History. Also I am a little bit of foodie, love to cook and appreciate any imaginative and creative sparks in vegetarianism. I am vegetarian for ethical reasons, and have been it for 12 years already. I am a bit controversial in my interests, and trying to be in balance with all aspects of my personality.
I live right on the border of Bushwick and Ridgewood, (Brooklyn and Queens) , close to Williamsburg, where I also work as a barista. So, I guess this influenced my life style a lot.

PHILOSOPHY

I live to obtain self-perfection and self-knowledge who I really am and why I am here. Thats sums it all up. But there are some subsidiary thoughts here as well. I am nerd in a way, but I am usually "undercover" one.

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

My hospitality, which is somewhere between American and Russian one, is something that I can offer.
I know my neighborhood pretty well and can show few nice spots here and there.
I usually try to avoid touristic places, but sometimes it can even be refreshing.
