Resumen
Sobre mí
CURRENT MISSION
Survive, and enjoy.
ABOUT ME
I grew up in Gorky, Russia, but then moved to US and have lived and traveled in many wonderful places in America. I prefer hustle and bustle of the city life to the slow pleasures of the country settings: the public concerts in Washington Square Park (Greenwich Village, NY), the evening beat of the historic North Beach in San Francisco, the crowds in Campo dei Fiori in Rome.
When I travel, I like to go to local spots, visit less touristy shops and cafes, mix in with the local crowd.
PHILOSOPHY
Life is what happens while we are making other plans.

Enseña, aprende, comparte
As an emigrant, I have learned to communicate over the language barrier. It opens amazing possibilities, and makes travel encounters so much more memorable.
