Hello!!! My name is Torian Viktorinov. I live in Spain but I'm from Siberia. Here in Spain people works about 35-40 hours in a week. I work nine hours a day as a bricklayer, in enormous buildings, and I'm very happy with my job. I have holidays during a month and I can visit my old and ill parents, who live in my far country. I can talk Spanish very well and I enjoy a lot talking with my workmates. I'm a lucky Russian man.

I´m happy with my job but sometimes I miss some time to spend with my family and my friends. I need some extra time to my hobby, the gardening, too. I hardly ever get stressed, and if I feel a bit nervous some yoga exercises are enough for me to feel better.
