Hello, I'm Alina. I am the author of feastories — a project about life, culture, history, and about not forgetting one's peasant roots. For it is the simple life that nourishes great culture.

I believe that world heritage is made up of quiet everyday discoveries — those very captured moments that art preserves and transforms into the timeless. Culture is the soul's search engine, where meaning matters more than form.

Who am I?
I was born in a small port town and grew up in a village. I hold a degree in History from the Faculty of History, Lomonosov Moscow State University, and completed the programme "Attribution of Art and Antiquities" at the Russian State University for the Humanities. It was there that I learned to see meaning beyond form. On weekdays, I work as a project manager in marketing. And feastories is my manifesto that creativity matters more than efficiency.

What is feastories?
It is a non-commercial project where I build bridges between cultures through personal stories. My videos and texts are pages of a single book about how art and everyday life intertwine, creating new meanings. I call them video books.

Feastories has three sections:
Video book [Cultural Impulse] — video essays exploring cultural connections across time, space, and languages.
Video book [Moments] — life stories that reveal universal themes through personal experience, culture, and travel.
Video book [Glimpse] — observations and notes from the margins in search of new meanings.

Why feastories?
The name grew out of my own: fe (Ferchuk) + a (Alina) + stories. What emerged was feastories — "a feast of stories," "a celebration of meaning" (from the English feast — celebration, hospitality).

Transparency: Whenever I use AI for writing texts, voiceovers, or image generation, I always disclose it.

Welcome to the space of feastories, where cultural impulses become visible. Here, I invite you to explore the timeless in art and life.
