Description

Tell about your childhood, school, family, etc.

My father was killed in WW II. I lived with my mother and my older brother. We had to move many times so I studied in three different schools. I was a ‘C’ student. My post0war childhood was hard.

Where did you work? Was your work good? Were you happy with your job?

When I was 16 I got a job at the project institute. Between 1964 and 1967  I served in the army.  Then I returned to ‘my’ institute where I worked till 1973 as a technical geologist. Then I worked in other project organization till 1985. Then I worked as a teacher till I got a disability status.

Tell about your present life.

I live with my wife who is retired and my son. He is not married and works in a music school. We conduct modest living since our family income is not high.

I was born in a family of Orthodox believers where Jesus Christ was always worshiped. My family also keeps God’s commandments and we try to help the needy as much as we can.
