Saving money doesn't hurt either!

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: mostly Muse lately, earlier Lacrimosa and Rammstein, totally love classics and opera too.
Movies: not so much into. The all-time favourite movie is Kusturica's Life is a miracle. Usually watch silly superhero movies with my boyfriend.
Books: read a lot of European and Russian classics during my studies; the favourite authors are H. Heine, H. Böll, V. Mayakovsky and some medieval poetry (e.g. Sangspruchdichtung)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Falling in love and having a baby. Both things never turned out as I expected them to.

Teach, Learn, Share

Can teach anything anything Russia or Russian related. Very keen to share my (read: ours) culture and history which is unfortunately not the first people think of (you know, after bears, vodka and annexation of Crimea)
