About Me

📍Travelling around Australia till the end of December 🇦🇺

It’s been more than 3 years since I left my country. Since then, the whole world has become my home. I don’t know what exactly I’m doing this for, but I feel most comfortable in life on the way somewhere, even if I don’t know where I will spend the night and whether someone will pick me up on this dusty road.

Most of all in life I value moments — for me this is the main currency. My life is like a timeline in editing program, inside which there are an infinite number of different moments on the way from nowhere to nowhere.
☀️⛰️🪂

Before I started my big journey I was fond of skydiving, extreme sports like climbing, snowboarding. I used to be a rope jumping (jumping from the cliffs) instructor in one of the most experienced team in Russia.

I also used to work in professional film industry and as a videographer in Dubai, UAE. I would love to capture something nice! 🎬

Can play the guitar 🎸 a bit obsessed with music 🎶

Prefer to travel by hitchhiking and using CS because it allows to explore the country deeper.
