I'm a PhD student living in Leicester, UK right now. So, I make some science, poke the brains, and try to understand how this whole system works. P.S. The strange hat on my head (on one of the photos) is so-called hood, in other words chaperon. Historical contraption.

Una cosa straordinaria che ho fatto
Once I was galloping on a horse barebacked down the hill and wasn't falling for whole three minutes. I got lost on the top of the Esya mountain (Reykjavik) in complete dense cloud for 5 hours, but I found the way back. I survived in Iceland having 50 euros in my pocket for 6 days :)
Insegna, Impara, Condividi
I can teach how to shoot with the bow (if suddenly you don't know how) and how to make some nice coctails. I hope that sharing interesting stories is the one of my distinctive qualities. I like to learn, so if there is anything weird (or not really) you want to teach me - I'm opened to a new knowledge.
Cosa posso offrire agli host
Leisure, wine and wide smile.
I miei interessi
Reading books, playing tin whistle and learning guitar, science, role-playing games (LARP), archery, travelling, skiing, surfing, snooker, whisky, playing games (board/words/PC/etc). To be more specific: Heroes of Might&Magic III/ 3.58 and Starcraft - my favorite among PC ones. I used to play World of Warcraft for 5 years on official and now quite nostalgic about this. Board games: backgammon, chinese checkers, cards, domino, Munchkin alike.
