About EuroScope

Get Personal


 
For those not yet spoiled by the "Cyber Age" who want to see a live person behind this web. 

The "live person" is me, Igor Portnov, 39. I've been in the business since 18 (started as part-time motel desk clerk). In late 80-ies I left my job as Tour Manager with the government-operated Intourist and co-founded the first privately owned incoming tour operator business in Ukraine. Since then my friends and I have created a very reliable and efficient network of small operators that allows us to provide travel arrangements and other related services all over Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union. 

For more about our business, please, see About EuroScope page. If you are more interested in my human side, below are some pictures from my private photo album. 
 

P.S. for those who think that any bicycle should have fat knobby tires: Yes, I ride a mountain bike too. 


Jamie Jensen, the author of Road Trip USA, starts his book with this phrase of Yogi Berra: "When you come to a fork in the road... take it". 

I did... and in 1995 found myself in the "tobacco capital of the world" (click on the picture to have a closer look at the road sign - I followed the one pointing to the right).

At a Reynolda Village soda shop (where else you stop in such heat?). Just round the corner is Ken's Bike Shop (positively the best in the world).
Between the bike rides I hunt rhinos... Just kiddin'.
Photo safari in Africa is still on my "to do" list. This and the above pictures were taken at the Ashboro Zoo (North Carolina).
Want to get even more personal? Try counting the candles on this picture (click to enlarge). I think, there should be 36.
Well, life is not only travels, bike rides and parties...
...but also going to countless exhibitions, museums, galleries...
