HOBBIES & POINT OF INTEREST

Books are my good fellas, and I am passionate about literature. Dickens, Salinger, Vian, and Dovlatov are my companions. I like jazz and rock; Elvis Presley, Foster The People, Oasis, and Melody Gardot are my favourites.

I like cultural and artistic events. Watching movies, going to theatres, attending to concerts, exhibitions and festivals are essential parts of my life. I feel deeply free when I’m riding my bike and going with wind.

At my home, you can find me while I’m searching for anything which is stuck in my mind.

I like reading books and watching documentaries. Sometimes I spend my time on online courses.
