How did you get discovered?
I submitted pictures of myself to an agency. Paid for a test and I've been modeling ever since...
What were you doing prior to modeling?
I was studying mathematics in university for three years. Working in a coffee shop to paid the rent!
People would be surprised to know that I...
am a Aquarian!
What's your latest obsession?
Reading, writing and photography. One of my favorite writer is Aldous Huxley, he is close to my ideas to create a better world!
Your most prize possession?
My camera, a Fuji film X-T1 and my mastercard! I cannot leave home without it!
Growing up, who did you look up to as your hero?
My mom. She is a strong person and in difficult times, she always stay humorous and never complain! Jackie Chan, such a funny man with his martial arts!
When is the last time you said, "I Love You" to someone?
My only confessional love was to my present girlfriend, the simple reason is because she gets my sense of humor!
Also, I remember she was mocking me:
Girlfriend—You don't like me Kirill!
Me—I don't like you...I love you!
Honestly, making a relationship work is way more important than love!

Three adjectives that best describes you:
Funny, Not dumb and not serious
Describe your personal style:
I liked to shop at vintage store. I like hats a lot...I like to collect but when you are living as a model, it is hard to have a lot of possession! Your luggage is limited to 45 pounds of stuff!
Your favorite place you have travel to:
London—Clean streets, cool accent, creative people, beautiful architecture and loads of pubs with unfathomable beer choice!
Your favorite film and scene from the film:
I grew up on 90's movies. I always liked the way there was always a little bit of nudity in there and unreal fights. But I guess for now, I like to stick to TV shows, the ones I already know, like Friends and Seinfeld. For me, it doesn't really matter which movie to see, it is more important I enjoyed the company I go with...people with a humorous personality are the best!

Your favorite sport:
Sport: Boxing—I like to get one on one with the bag in my boxing gloves. I started because where I came from, it isn't a very safe environment, plus it is good cardio!
If there's a destination or item you would recommend us to check out or visit about your native country/city or town, what would you recommend?
Ekatezinburg, Russia—Hot Springs and dog sleigh rides would be interesting things to do at my hometown!
If you were given a indie cable show, what type of show would it be? Which song would you choose as your opening theme song?
Comedy show about modeling industry Theme song: Original music composed by a friend of mine!

Create a better world for all of us!
