Music, Movies, and Books

I think cinema is one the most important type of entertainment for people nowadays (I love books, but statistics is not on the literature side).
There are few actors who I really like and whose movies I follow: Meryl Streep (August: Osage County, Julie & Julia, It's Complicated, Mamma Mia!, The Devil Wears Prada), Tom Hanks ( Big, Forrest Gump, Apollo 13, Saving Private Ryan, You've Got Mail, The Green Mile, Cast Away, The Terminal, Cast Away, Captain Phillips), Johnny Depp, Penélope Cruz,

Among film directors I enjoy movies of Robert Zemeckis (his movies are genius: Flight, Forrest Gump), Woody Allen (Midnight in Paris, Blue Jasmine, Vicky Cristina Barcelona, Annie Hall, Match Point), Pedro Almodóvar (The Skin I Live In, Broken Embraces, Bad Education, Talk to Her, All About My Mother) Bigas Luna (Jamón, jamón, Yo soy la Juani , La teta y la luna, Huevos de oro , Las edades de Lulú - although I hate his last film Di Di Hollywood )
Well, my favourite TV shows are:
Friends,
The Big Bang Theory,
How I Met Your Mother,
House MD,
Mad Men,
Two and a half men,

And some girly stuff like
Sex and the City,
Mistresses

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

CS is an amazing thing itself - communicate with unknown people like they are your family (some far-away relatives) is great. You start feeling that we really are brothers and sisters. no matter how old we are and what is our skin colour.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to cook, some crafts + Ukrainian, Russian and English (if you still don't know it=). I love learning and sharing - it's very special if people not only hang out, but make smt together.

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Azerbaijan, Belgium, Czech Republic, Egypt, France, Georgia, Germany, Hungary, Israel, Italy, Jordan, Mexico, Moldova, Montenegro, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Thailand, Turkey, Turkmenistan

Countries I’ve Lived In

France, Russian Federation, Ukraine, United States
