Hello, world!
My name is Svyatoslav ILINSKIY(but for short people call me Stas). I am 16 years old and I live in St Petersburg, Russia.
For this 16 years I have been intrested in many things, but let's start with one my passion - travelling! I really enjoy going to different countries, cities, towns looking at how people there live! When I don't leave some place for a few months I just start suffocating. So, I have to travel at least a few days every few months.
Finland, Sweden, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Germany, Montenegro, Turkey, Egypt, Italy, Austria, England, Greece, Czech Republic, Mexico, Guatemala, Belize, USA - this is the full list of countries I have been in. Totally, it is 18 countries, if I haven't forgotten any.
For me it is really interesting to see different people and cultures.
Another my passion is music. I really enjoy listening to music, especially rock.
I will tell you a story of how I started listening to music. When I was about 8 my older sister brought a CD of Green Day. I haven't listened before that, so I took her CD while she was away and listened to it. Of course, I didn't understand any lyrics at all bit I still liked the music. As I remember, my favorite song was Boulevard of Broken Dreams. Now, I do not appreciate it so much, frankly, I just hate it. But then I really liked it. And that is how I started listening to music!
Now I do not listen to Green day much, but I like other bands. For example, Amanda Palmer, a singer, who is from Boston, the city I am going to this summer. So while I am there I would really like to go to her gig, if she will have one.
Also, I am really fond of musicals. I find them really nice. So, as I am going to NYC for a few days, I would really enjoy going to a musical. For instance, I know there is a musical on music of Green Day.
TV shows really became a quite significant part of my life recently.
I do not like Russian TV, however I find British and American TV really interesting. I guess my three favorite TV shows are now: Community, Doctor Who and The Mighty Boosh. Two latter ones are British and Community was born in the USA. I find them really nice and they make my life a bit brighter=)
Now you know about the three of my passions; I have many more, though I have to stop in order not to make this post too long and to keep it readable.
If you have read carefully, you might have noticed that I am going to Boston and NYC this summer.
I am looking forward to walking through the streets of Boston and New York, going to a gig of Amanda Palmer, meeting new people and making new friends, learning new things, improving my English, seeing different universities, spending my free time, going to New York, watching a musical, buying and reading books, watching TV shows, lying on a beach, making videos and, finally, having good time!
