About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Not really any mission, just traveling and enjoying my life.

ABOUT ME

I'm a bit gypsy, love moving, changing places, meeting new people, remember some of them for ever, learning new things, break stereotypes, enjoy having good conversation, share opinions and appreciate any help, advise or just simple smile 'cause I belive that small simple things make our life more beautiful.
