MY LIFE LINE
Just 38 turns around the sun - a thin line of my life. If you are here, it means that you have decided to know a little bit more about me. First of all, I apologize for my English. I have just started to learn it and don't want to use an automatic translator. It will get better day by day, and the articles on my website will improve as well. I hope it will be comfortable for you to see my 38 years of life in this line. Here are some main checkpoints that I have passed, and I am ready for new ones.

Hooray! America discovered!
The American continent has been reached! It's my first time visiting this part of the earth. This land is quite different from the rest of the world. Sometimes, I feel like I’m on a different planet, which brings both challenges and, of course, fun!

Friends - the true value
“It is better to have many friends than to have a lot of money.”- That’s what we say about friendship in Russia. And it means that we are among the richest people in the world. Thank you, folks!
We met most of our friends at crossroads and formed such a deep connection that, even when far apart, we not only stay in touch but even work together.

My job
Honestly, I have only worked for about 1.5 years in a traditional job - as a manager in the spare parts department at Toyota Center. But after that, my 10 years of experience at TV Stations can hardly be called “work”. Photography, Video, Television, Cinema - this is my passion, and I can truly say it’s my lifestyle.
Over 10 years in professional TV field, I worked at four different TV stations, gaining skills as a cameraman, editor, TV presenter, journalist, reporter, and even a talking head on a national TV show. I also shot documentaries and accomplished many things I am proud of.

Exploring Asia, exploring ourselves
Before I would have kids, I decided to dedicate a part of my life to explore Asia. I traveled a lot - Thailand, India, Nepal, Israel, and now America. I am sure that by traveling around the world, is the best way to explore our inner selves. And it works! This long trip helped me to understand many things about myself and other people.

And one day my dream came true
When I was little, I always asked my parents to buy me a sister. And one day, this dream came true. But by that time, I was already 24 years old and living more than 10,000 km away from my parents home.
Still, my sister is ray of light for me and all of us. We see each other often, and we are really close friends.

My family and childhood
My father and grandfather were sailors. My mom also spent a few years with my father on a huge ocean liner, where he worked as a young chief officer.
My family was always on the move - simply because we could. I believe curiosity and a desire to travel are in my blood.
The place I was born
Sakhalin Island is my homeland, where my roots are. This island is the northern neighbor of the Japanese island of Hokkaido, so we have strong ties to Japanese culture. The nature is breathtaking, and the people are kind.
