I appreciate good quality of life, freedom and creativity. I like beautiful things and people. In like wine (I drink responsibly, don't worry). Briefly, I'm a classical hedonist.

I've worked as coordinator in the Residency of Arts and Technology QuartaRiata in Saint-Petersburg for the last year. Before this, I lived in different European countries, studied art management, travelled and worked.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: jazz, freak-folk, experimental (Animal Collective is my favourite band for example)
Films: art house (Lynch, Greenaway, Anderson, Lanthimos, Seidl). But I also like thrillers and TV-series about murders.
Books: Castaneda, Vonnegut, Hesse.

Teach, Learn, Share

I won't ask hosts to entertain me, show me the city or so.. I just need a nice place to stay. If you need something in exchange, that's what I can give you:

I can give you lessons of French.
I can teach you to make craft paper.
If you are an artist, we can collaborate and make a common photo or video project.
I can also help you with such tasks as translations (from/to Russian or French), graphic design, videomaking.

If you are ready to host me for a long period (2 weeks for example), I agree to do some housework, gardening or so.
