Overview
About Me
I am a 4th year Engineering student at Oxford University who loves to travel! I was born and lived in Moscow till I was 11 years old, after which my parents and me moved to the city of Malaga in the South of Spain, where I lived up until starting university.
I am interested in biomedical engineering and medicine in general, love reading about biology and health sciences! I am a runner, and am a part of my university athletics club.
I have travelled a lot with my parents, and have started travelling by myself and with friends since starting university. I have been to many European countries and regions of Russia as well!
My dream is to hithhike from the most western to the most eastern point of Europe, to show that travelling doesn't have to be expensive!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I love travelling, meeting new people and sharing my experiences. I have friends who travelled all of southeast Asia solely by couchsurfing and hitchhiking, and I was very inspired by them! There is just so much to see and explore in this world, and couchsurfing can make these experiences even more memorable and special.
Interests
- running
Music, Movies, and Books
I enjoy singers like Irma, Whitney Huston, Leyoka, as well as Spanish reggaeton. But my favourite genre of music is russian rap, with two singers-Max Korzh and Noize MC each having a big part of my heart. The latter one has amazing texts with so many metaphors, and the former one has a huge fanbase, which I am lucky to be a part of-we travel to different countries, go to concerts, organise events, and spend a lot of time together. I have found so many friends and made so many memories thank to Max! My passion for travelling also started from being a part of the fanbase, so I would love to share their music with you.
My favourite movie is on the edge of 17, just because it is so relatable! In general I am a big fan of romantic mivies and romcoms especially.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Travelled around Altai region of Russia in a motorhome for a week! The views were probably the most amazing views I have ever seen, and living in a motorhouse is definetely an experience I can not recommend enough.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach you some Russian, would love to go for a jog with you, and tell about my experience with Oxford. I am also a maths tutor and am very passionate about the subject in general, so will be very happy to do some maths puzzles or similar together! I also love cooking so will happily help you in the kitchen.
