Picture that shows your work.
Briefly describe what it is that you do and why you love it.
I'm a student, studies take most of my time, but I have a part-time job at the local recording studio, where I work with a traditional music ensemble. Assonant sound of folk vocal motives and subtle twang of Russian traditional instruments surrounds me every day, composing all that in one piece is the most joyful job ever. While a have so many other hobbies, music is the most important of them, so I'm very glad that I work there.
Picture that shows what you do to let off steam and have fun.
Briefly describe how you got interested in this and why you love it.
Russians are big car and racing enthusiasts, they love luxurious cars and like to show off their driving skills. My older brother used to take me with him to watch rally races, so I started liking rally cars. Now I'm driving my favorite of them - Mitsubishi EVO X.
I love to drive, especially at night when the city is filled with bright lights and the streets are empty.
Picture that shows what you do in your community to give back.
Briefly describe how you got started and why you love it.
3 years ago I joined the "Greenpeace" organization, they made a big impact on me when I first saw their campaign on cleaning lake Baikal. I love my land and it's nature, so I wanted to join them and make myself useful to it. I want to make my country cleaner and a better place to live in.
Picture that shows a special talent you have that you work to refine.
Briefly describe how you got interested and why it is important to you.
Music is not only about singing and playing instruments, it's about dancing too. The most beautiful and disciplined to me is classic ballet. The famous prima ballerina, Anastasia Volochkova, made ballet in Russia very popular, she had inspired me as well.
Posture, alignment, feeling and flexibility are vital for becoming a classical ballet dancer. I think I have what it takes to achieve recognition in ballet, but I still have many things to improve before I can perform a solo in "Swan Lake".
What do you love most about the daily life you live? What makes your life happy and special?
I'm very happy that I can do what I love to do, I'm surrounded with music which makes my life brighter. I have an interesting job, which gives me tons of joy; I also have my hobbies, which allow me to improve myself both physically and intellectually; and of course my family, who loves and supports me.
