Victor writes about himself, in his own English:

I haven't had real experience with ecotours before, I'm just beginner but I have ambitions and enthusiasm, love outdoor activity and nature.

Also I don't have proper education. I graduated from Polytechnic University in Vladivostok in 1992 as engineer on electronics and Russian Business Training Initiative in 1998 as production manager. Since 1996 I've been involved in tourism at travel agency "Slavyanka-Tour" dealing with tours to China. In 1998 I started arranging ecotours here in Primorye Territory.

I was born in town Sovetskaya Gavan, Khabarovskiy Territory, in 1969, lived there up to 1986 and know these places well. Since childhood I have been going in for yachting (sails) and in 1991 been in Alaska aboard sailboat. Though I'm not biologist and don't know names of all plants and birds I love the Nature in whole and like unspoiled areas and ecotravels.
