My mother is Russian, my father is Uyghur (I know majority of you hear about this nationality for the first time in your life). I am originally from Kazakhstan (and yes, finally my country became famous thanks to Borat!) and I live in California now.
I like learning foreign languages and culturies. I love travelling and discovering life of the different cities. I've been playing table tennis since I was 8 y.o. and I was a member of Kazakhstan National Team for a few years.
Now I play at Gilbert Table Tennis Center (5870 West Olympic Blvd)
