Greetings!
My name's Pavel (but since Russian names may have lots of different forms, for simplicity you may call me Pasha).
I am a PhD student (Earth sciences, physical oceanography) from Vladivostok, Far East Russia. Apart from that I am very into languages. Especially Asian languages and culture like Chinese and Japanese.
In fact, I've been trying to learn Japanese for years already - since my first introduction to SEGA MegaDrive video console with some games in Japanese. Ever since then I tried to grasp any info on Japan. This information was scarce and sporadic though - practically no internet (several hours of unstable dial-up for a price of kidney), two-three bookshops that had a couple of dictionaries at best and nothing more. Up to my graduation from school and preparation for a university my interest in Japanese had weakened significantly. But during my university years I regained my aspiration for learning the language (thank you Ethernet connection)... But it proved to be difficult, since it was like starting anew. So eventually I ended up here at `italki`.
I have bored you, have I?
Long story short.
I am interested in:
* conversations about anything, actually. Unfortunately, right now I can do it only in English... But, hey, I came to `italki` to overcome that "weakness", no matter how hard it will be... he said enthusiastically but shrugged deep inside.
* learning and practicing Japanese. The latter is a whole new area for me, since I only said three of four sentences to an actual Japanese speaker in my whole life.
* helping out those who learn Russian, clarify particular questions (or confuse even more) etc.
I may not be available all the time ('cause work and stuff), but I will try to devote at least some time in a week to that. Oh! And I don't have a webcam, unfortunately, and my mic seems like it is designed to record all the ambient noise. But there's keyboard for you!
Anyway, hope to have some fun, if you're interested.
See you!
