If you ask my friends they would describe me as a very pleasant, diverse, active and intelligent. I think one of my most distinguishing characteristics is the diversity of experiences and interests I possess.

I have a degree in philology and my thesis was about latest works of Julio Cortazar.

I also have a passion for traveling and understanding different cultures of the world. Airport is one of my favourite places in the city. I am always planning some trips, which I might realise in the future. Currently I dream about northern Italy and Normandie. This winter I would like to go to Samui.

I have a high IQ but I am more a person of feelings and emotions. Family is the most important value for me. I am here to find a man who is ready for serious relationship (unfortunately many Russian men are not) with whom I can share my life, my interests and my love.

I like rainy weather, oceans at night, italian icecream and red vine, walking in the woods, climbing mountains, listening to childrens laugh, black and white photographs, to receive postcards, lavender, train journeys, paper books, late breakfasts, meeting new people, antiques and flea markets.

I work as an import-manager and every day speak with people from 3 different continents and a dozen of countries using 3 different languages.

Learning languages, planning unusual trips, kissing, spending good time with friends, finding best prices for airplane tickets, keeping my home clear off unnecessary things, assembeling Ikea furniture.

Among my favourite authors: Virginia Woolf, William Faulkner, Erich Maria Remarque, Marcel Proust, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Julio Cortazar, Joseph Brodsky, Ivan Bunin, Anton Chekhov, Vladimir Nabokov.

I live without T.V. almost 4 years, and I don't regret about it. I can watch what I like and when I want. I enjoy watching movies in English or Spanish (as no matter how good is the translation, it is only a dubbing).
Movies: The Hours, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, La science des rêves, Babel, Revolutionary Road, The Lives of Others, The Reader, Burn After Reading, The Next Three Days, Happythankyoumoreplease, The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.
TV shows: Sherlock, Game of Thrones, How I met your mother, The Office. That is what comes to mind now...

Music: it depends on my mood )

Food: I like Mediterranean cuisine; pasta, salads, seafood, fresh bread with olive oil and a glass of red or white wine.
