I"m an orthodox priest, married. Usually traveling with my wife Lidia. Had a great experience in visiting of populated and not populated areas in Russia, Europe and North Africa. Two of the reasons to go anywhere abroad - 1) participance in sc. conferences and etnogr. expeditions; 2) our lections and concerts of traditional orthodox liturgical-paraliturgical singing. Also, when/where is possible - hiking.
