About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I like to travel, to learn languages and to meet new people. Now I am studying Spanish. And I am really into it. I want to travel to South America. I like to draw, my desire is to become an illustrator. I also can't imagine my life without sea.

ABOUT ME

I studied art history in Moscow and specialized on Iranian architecture. To write my thesis I traveled to Iran, that was an incredible experience. I really like Islamic architecture and I like to talk about architecture and art, to discuss exhibitions. Now I work in two schools as an art and art history teacher. And I really like my job.
I also dream of illustrating books. I like to paint and I like linocut technique.
I love to travel and to meet new people. I like to listen about the life of other people and to find common interests.
I also like to taste new food and drinks. I like to run and to dance and i like to catch these moments when I feel extremely happy.

Interests

Cinema, art, theatre, literature, long walks, cycling, swimming, dancing (flamenco!), having fun with my friends. I adore sea and ocean. And dream about living near the sea.
