About Me

Internal freedom, tenderness, and kindness are my three main supports in life. I am in love with the sea waves and the gentle wind, playing in the spring foliage. Moments of silence and tranquility, fully immersing myself in the present moment, make me feel alive.

Last 3 years I was living in Italy, got completely exhausted of the "adult" life and decided to give myself a chance to travel and work on my photography, so I started volunteer with Worldpackers, now I am in Germany and traveling around :)

For me, travel is not just moving from one point to another, but an opportunity to delve into the depths of human experience. I am always in search of balance and harmony within myself and in the world around me, and I also greatly desire to share the kindness that exists within me with others!

I love exploring new places through the eyes of locals, creating real connections, and diving into memorable experiences together. Couchsurfing brings the chance for all of this, and I can’t wait to share stories, laughs, and new discoveries with new friends along the way.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: I can share my photography skills and tips, especially around capturing authentic moments and natural light.
Learn: I’m always eager to learn more about new cultures, languages, and local traditions. I’d love to hear your travel stories, learn a few cooking tips, or discover anything unique about your city that only a local would know.
Share: I’m always happy to share laughter, stories, and experiences over a meal or coffee, and hopefully create memories that go beyond a typical travel experience.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I’d love to share my skills and experiences with hosts in meaningful ways:

1) I’m happy to offer portraits or capture special moments during my stay. My goal is always to bring out the beauty and authenticity in people and places.
2) I can share insights into Russian, Italian, and German cultures and would be glad to help you practice a new language!
3) Whether it’s cooking, organizing, or small projects, I’m happy to pitch in around the house. My hospitality background has taught me to be proactive and mindful.

I strive to create a welcoming, positive atmosphere wherever I go, and I’m excited to share some good memories with you!
