Cape Scott Lighthouse: Bears, Flat Tire & Moonlit Beaches

A midnight flat tire on Vancouver Island's loneliest road. Rescued by a bear hunter. We hiked more than 50km - with a bear trailing us, and more - a cub peeking from behind a tree. We followed wolf tracks, slept beneath lighthouse skies, and watched the sunset blaze over the coast. Well, even the "Graveyard of the Pacific" has a...

Hot Water Outage

This piece explores how bathing differs across Canada, Russia, and the UK. It brings back memories of five-minute cold showers under the watchful eye of a landlady in London, prison-style rules from a Canadian corrections officer, and even the odd excuse to start a romance during water outages in Moscow.

Шахерезада

В реанимации душно и страшно. Хочется притворяться сильной и глупо шутить. За месяц без движения и еды человеческое тело меняется. Но мозг - прежний. Родители видят в нас - лучшую версию нас самих, о которой мы забываем.

In August, we set out from the small coastal community of Bamfield, following the rugged trail toward Cape Beale Lighthouse—the oldest staffed sentinel in British Columbia. The journey would take us through dripping forests, over broken boardwalks, and past the ghostly shapes of abandoned boats, until the path ended at the edge of the continent, where waves and wind rule.

Остановка в Стамбуле, прогулка по брусчатым улочкам, турецкие кошки, папины культурные и исторические наставления, турецкий кофе - зачинщик жуткой головной боли, унижение женщин по-турецки, несправедливость всего мира. Всё это закончилось в полицейском участке.

And no one to ask
20.01,2025

So many Goodbyes
17.01,2025

Смерть и праздник несовместимы, но здесь они сосуществуют, подчёркивая абсурдность жизни. Личность одного человека оказалась такой огромной, что на встречу с собой он собрал больше людей, чем собирается на Пасху.

Dad is sleeping
8.01,2025

Мы обходим стороной слово “кома” и ходим на цыпочках, чтобы папу не разбудить. Хотя разбудить-то его как раз очень хочется. Вот он проснётся и как в “Гудбай, Ленин!”, мы будем ему подыгрывать - создавая ту реальность, в которой он уснул.

Research Methods
20.08,2025

As a researcher, I deploy targeted methods to get actionable insights: Surveys (personal/QR-code/social media-enabled to understand visitor feedback and quantify trends), In-Depth Interviews (uncovering local stakeholder perspectives and reveal ‘why’ behind data), Field Research (direct observation of real-world behaviors in tourism settings to capture authentic interactions), and Controlled Experiments (testing interventions like volunteer programs or application of new tourism attractions).

Social and cultural dynamics, focusing on how people interact, form communities, and navigate identity within diverse contexts. It also addresses how traditions, norms, and cultural practices influence human behavior and societal development.
