CURRENT MISSION

Expanding my boundaries and getting out of my comfort zone

ABOUT ME

Born and raised in a remote village of Russia's Western Urals (not far away from the border between Asia and Europe). Used to live and study in a large industrial city of Perm and in St. Petersburg, one of the most spectacular and romantic places of Russia. Now living in Germany in a picturesque rural area.

I think my friends would describe me as easy-going and warm-hearted. I like to try and learn new exciting things. I'm passionate about discovering new places and meeting people of different nationalities and cultures. I'm friendly and like new adventures and challenges which is one of the reasons I came to Germany. Besides, I'm engaged in old vintage things and hand made ideas and I'm dreaming of owning my own orchard.

PHILOSOPHY

It's better to regret something you did than regret not doing it.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I don't have a couch to spare at the moment but would love to meet couch surfers in Ostwestfalen-Lippe for socialising, having fun and showing people around where I live.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I registered here for 2 years, but since then haven't come to the idea of couchsurfing any more. Now I'm going to fill in this gap. I hope, traveling his way will give me a different perspective to the location and I will be able to get a real feel for the place and people there.

兴趣

I love traveling, volunteering, reading, learning languages, being in nature, cross-stiching, going to the theatre, dancing, gardening, writing postcards.

教，学，和分享

I can teach or practice any language I know with you or maybe you can teach me how to say things in your language. If you're intrested in cross-stiching, I can show you how to do that. I also could learn you how to cook some traditional Russian dishes (what about pelmeni, borsch or pirogi? :=)) and I would be happy to learn how to cook foods from different countries. Besides, I would love to learn about alternative ways of nutrition (vegetarian, raw food etc.) or create hand made things.
