Hi! I’m half Russian, half Jewish — born in Moscow, and I’ve lived in many places: Israel, the US, Germany, Thailand, Kyrgyzstan, the Balkans… and now, part of the year, on my boat in Sweden. I work in experimental film and run a small business that keeps me afloat. I’m passionate about art, nature, and Buddhist philosophy. I value freedom, sincerity, and depth — in people, in conversations, and in the way we live. Sailing, for me, is a way to live simply and stay connected to what really matters.
