Julian Iliev

Sofia, Bulgaria

There's a few things I love doing and those would be front-end web design, drawing, painting, graphic design (you can check my photo galleries /at my website jdbones.com and portfolio links below/ if interested), taking photos, playing the guitar, composing and recording music. I also have a talent for writing but I never find enough time to develop that skill to its fullness... yet. So far, it's been a lifetime journey to try and make one (or all) of them my job. For doing things I don't like in order to make a living is a real spirit crusher.

Other stuff I also like is having a beer, reading a book, hangin' out with friends (there's not many of them, the list is short and yes, I like it that way), travelling for fun, listening to music and, though I'm totally not a sports person, scuba-diving is an experience I'm completely in love with - someday I I'll finish my courses and buy myself some equipment. So far, it's too expensive for me to afford.

I'm pretty much into cooking as well - I cook for fun since I was 11.

I'm not a typical night person, but I prefer the quiet of the night because of the absence of annoying people during that period. I like cats better than people. For the exception of my parents, closest friends, cherished ones, like-minded folk and the people I admire, in general, I don't naturally like the presence, touch and talk of humans and crowded places often make me feel uncomfortable. An exception would make crowds that are gathered to admire me - for example, when I play the guitar in front of an accepting audience :) A beach with the sea roaring and a hundred birds screaming is like the voice of a violin compared to a couple of attention-seekers in the streets or at the bar.
