Autorenporträt
I was born in ex-USSR in the northern town of Ukhta. I have always been interested in languages and cultures other than my own that brought me to Perm State Scientific Research University where I still stay as a teaching staff member. Besides fascination with languages (English, German, Turkish and Spanish) I am a fan of dance and travel.
