I am 34 years old, a university tutor and scientist from Moscow. I use CS primarily to get to know people from all over the world and improve my language skills.

For the last several years I have got acquainted with dozens of amazing people from the CS community!

Currently I am in Vienna, Austria (25th January-2 February 2016). Looking forward to meeting the locals and anyone here in Vienna!

Music, Movies, and Books

Not a great fan of fiction, but LOVE true-to-life stories and fantasy books.
As far as FILMS are concerned, I am keen on sci-fi and fantasy, as well as action films and thrillers.
MUSIC is my passion I am always looking for something new and fascinating. What makes me tick? Pop (Madonna, Justin Timberlake, Christina Aguilera, George Michael, Elton John, Beyonce), classical crossover (Josh Groban, Sarah Brightman, Russell Watson, Charlotte Church), sometimes jazz, often r'n'b (Black eyed peas) but with little rap (Eminem) inside. Ambient or New Age like Schiller, Vangelis, Enya, Secret garden or Jean Michel Jarre...
