Description

Hi,
I love to travel around the world and learn new things. I would like to visit and see new places and experience the beauty, food and people of different regions. I am interested in photography of little visited or unknown natural sights and animals in their natural environment.

I love to work with children. I can teach them all of this as follows: Bulgarian language (writing and reading), basic level of English, world history, psychology, sociology, philosophy, critical thinking, working with data, biology, ecology, geography, astronomy, interpersonal communication, healthy nutrition and sports (basic level of swimming, ski, basketball, volleyball, soccer, water polo, running long distances). Also I can be partner both children and their parents in practicing different sports like: cycling, table tennis, tennis, horse riding, cross-country running, barefoot running, ultramarathons, beach volleyball, ice skating, archery, hiking and trekking.

For the last two years I worked in a private experimental school where there were only students between 5 and 7 years old (boys and girls).

I can walk all day with pleasure, but I do not like sitting in cafes and bars. I do not smoke and do not drink alcohol because I do not like it. I avoid to eat meat but love fish. I would like to try unknown for me foods from the local cuisine typical of the region. I love dancing and all kinds of sports- from swimming to flying. I love horse riding too. And ultramarathons.

I can take care of dogs, cats, cook simple dishes with not too much ingredients.
I have experience in caring for dogs, cats, aquarium fishes, hamsters, gerbils, parrots, hens, ducks, geese, peacocks, guinea fowl, guinea pigs, Indian stick insect, ostriches, emus but I have a great desire to swim with dolphins and whales.

I am a writer and I can stay anywhere from a few days to 2-3 months as a housesitter if there is good internet so I can work.

In the future I plan to get license as an instructor of acro and aerial yoga, pilates, kitesurfing, scuba diving, and I want as well to learn to ride a motorcycle and to drive yacht, sailing boat, motorboat, catamaran. I have the necessary international documents for a boat captain but I have no experience. I will also learn a few more languages besides Russian and English that I already speak.

I am interested in environmental projects, renewable energy, protection of wild animals, and business projects based on “from cradle to grave” approach (circled economics with zero emissions).

One of my main goals is all children around the world to have basic swimming skills and be able to swim long and safely in lakes, seas and oceans.
I think it is completely irresponsible to continue ignoring two of the leading causes of death of healthy children and young people worldwide: drownings and suicides. The introduction of a universal swimming culture in education and training systems around the world, as well as youth rescue activity and collective teamwork, will not only reduce the number of water victims, but also will lead to a decrease in the number of suicides (the lonely people and those who don't know who to ask for help, say goodbye to life much easier).
I hope that indirectly this practice can also affect the third main cause of death of healthy children and youth - car accidents, a large part of which are due to irresponsible attitude on the road, the result of low self-esteem, disregard for the lives of other people or alcohol. Only one thing is needed: Prevention!
