ABOUT ME Happy-go-lucky dream chaser, footloose and fancy free, entirely made of oxygen. Sociologist and Russian philologist, currently working in new tech industry (programmatic ad management - yup). I try to catch all the opportunies that life brings. I'm definitely not good at cooking, but I'm getting more and more experienced in washing the dishes :) PHILOSOPHY "She was already learning, that if you ignore the rules, people will half the time quietly rewrite them so that they don't apply to you" (Terry Prachett)

Música, películas y libros
Once upon a time I was a funny teen with blonde hair, wearing baggy clothes, listening to rap music and hip-hop ;) Now it's more like Placebo, Parov Stelar, Manu Chao, Florence, Yeah Yeah Yeahs and many others... But if I had to choose only one song, it'd probably be "Ground beneath her feet" by U2, a masterpiece! And definitely, you should read a novel "Ground beneath her feet" by Salman Rushdie. And books of Ryszard Kapuscinski and Jacek Hugo-Bader. And some Russian writers too, Bulgakov is a must, but also Yerofeyev, Pelevin... Ok, stop, generally, I love reading.
