I grew up in St.Petersburg, but have been living in several countries in Europe for almost 6 years: Finland, then Germany, now Italy. I am currently moving to Amsterdam to look for a job in Data Science after completing a master's degree in economics.

Non-smoker; like to do different sports, read books and magazines about politics/economics/computer science.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As I am new to Amsterdam, I want to make new friendships and meet people, already when I am gonna come to look for apartments :)
