Now live in Varna, Bulgaria.

CURRENT MISSION

My current mission is to make this universe more friendly :)

ABOUT ME

I am a writer. I've got crazy stories to share, because I've spinned twice around the planet with Cirque du Soleil show "Alegria" in 2001 - 2003.
Published a book about Russian clowns and it looks like this: http://shop.heliconplus.ru/item.php?id=164
I used work as a Graphic Designer (on-line), then became an entrepreneur. My husband and I created on-line business which allows us to travel and continue to figure out the best place on this planet for permanent living.
My hobby is drawing in Japanese style.
I am curious, cheerful and kind person. Non-smoker.

PHILOSOPHY

My motto is Anima Allegra (joyful spirit).
The main idea is that it's better to live your life not only for your own personal goals, but for the goals that are bigger than you.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm interested in Rock, Blues&Jazz, Fusion and Native music.

I was a reading child. All kind of genres from classic to science fiction.
Now I prefer documentary, memoirs and self-help for professionals.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I produced an amazing daughter Masha. My daughter is a wonderful circus acrobat, a star of Cirque du Soleil and Broadway Musical "Pippin". Take a look here: http://terentiev.com/masha/masha/

Less "amazing", but still important for me: I created a website "Get Job in Toronto" - http://www.getjobintoronto.com/ ) - to help people (mostly newcomers) to find a job in Toronto in a simple and efficient way, based on my own experience. I know a trick how to get many interview invitations in a week. ;)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach some travel tricks to be more confident in a new place.
I can show how to paint in Japanese style (even if you never could draw), and I'd like to learn more from advanced artists. Here you can see my artworks:
