I've been in Atlanta for almost a year now, just moved to Cabbage Town. Just finished spending the better part of a year studying for two professional exams while working full time. Now I'm looking to meet new and interesting people to have fun with. I'm more of a work hard, play hard type person. Life is uninteresting otherwise.

I was born in Ukraine.

I once believed in Karma, that belief died a painful death.

I do photography, outdoor activities, and anything else exciting in my spare time. I also read a lot. I get rowdy.

...trying to make a difference, but in an unconventional way...

Keeping things in perspective and being down for whatever, life is short. I guess that means I'm really good at staying busy and having fun.

I speak my mind, but generally in a good way.

Someone's completely unsolicited first impression of me from about a year ago that I just found:
"He's a comedically stereotypical Russian (name, face, accent, wearing a shirt that said "CCCP", communist) who likes to farm, but has studied economics and plans to "make a lot of money and give it away"."

Books: Les Miserables, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
Movies: Thank You For Smoking, A Beautiful Mind
Art: Jan Saudek, Jenny Saville, Martin Wittfooth
TV: South Park
Favorite Activities: photography, snowboarding, rock climbing, dancing, filming
Music: jazz, classical, electronic, rock, indie, rap, hip hop, dub step...Shpongle, Tool, Trentemoller...

Quotes:
"If you're not living on the edge, you're taking up too much room."

"Ambition is the willingness to kill the things you love and eat them to stay alive." <- I think this is hilarious...and only sort of true.

nifty ideas, dancing!, music, weirdness, art, good eats

science, economics, music, psychology, the environment

with friends dancing or hanging out or stuck in my mind trying to figure something out

...I'll tell you anything, you just have to ask.

...you're different or interesting...or if you want to dance!, photograph, film, or engage in sports...or if you're completely nuts, I tend to get along with nutty people

I recently started rock climbing again, so finding rock climbing friends would be great.

I also generally get along much better with more nerdy types of people.
