About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Be optimistic

ABOUT ME

I was born in San Francisco and live in St. Petersburg. I believe in karma. I like to dance. Snow is surprisingly lovely. I'm easy going, but can be moody, like most people.

PHILOSOPHY

I try to surround myself with people I can respect, love and learn from, so that I will become a better person. I don't see a point in blaming other people for the way things are in my life. If I don't like something, I try to change it when possible and just get over it when I can't do anything about it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Homemade and home grown food in the Russian countryside. So unexpectedly delicious, environmentally friendly, and economical! Impressive.

Walking up my childhood street to this place where there's a view of the forest and the wind hits you.

Being in London and being able to go in and watch Parliament debate. For free. I couldn't believe it.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to practice languages with anyone.
