I am a Russian journalist, finishing my degree in phylology. I fell in love with travelling some 2 years ago, after a fantastic hiking experience in Southern Russia. I think that one has to try his best to search and find his or her place in life, and no matter what other people say. The most imlortant thing in life is love, and thats what we all lack. In the age of war and violence one should remember that. For two years I worked in a charity foundation but quit this job because wanted to try something else.

If you have been waiting for my reply more than a day, please contact me on Facebook on via email:

But I do not answer copy-paste requests, that contain only ”Hello, can I stay in your house?" The answer is no.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
