I'm a Master student and a researcher in biology (bioinformatician). I live near Moscow and would be glad to spend time with you if you visit Moscow. Sometimes I'm in Cheboksary when visiting parents mostly. If I'm available in Cheboksary, I'll mention it in the profile

Currently I am doing research on epigenetic regulation in immune cells during tuberculosis infection. I'm also in a project about human gut microbiota. I find really amazing and inspiring the idea that some bacteria inside us are of great help to our bodies 😌 like tiny helpers we don't even usually think about

To be honest, maybe a bit shy?.. not an easy-going person, more like a good listener, but more funny and talkative if I get to know you more

I don't eat meat if important 😅 (i can cope with supplying myself on my own, don't worry! just for information)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To get to know people

Interests

Apart from science keen on learning languages. I've been taking classes in German for several years. It's my second year of learning Spanish. Interested in learning any perculiarities in other languages.

I attend Iyengar yoga classes and love their approach of soft gentle practice learning limitations of my body and trying to do a little bit more but with no harm

Spending time with friends, walking, talking, wine evenings, singing odd stuff to my roommate playing gitarre

• yoga
• languages
• science
• programming
• listening to music

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy listening to lots of kinds of music. Check it out here if we are compatible ahah http://www.lastfm.ru/user/SereneOrchid :)

I appreciate well-made films with characters you can believe in and sophisticated plots! Dramas, sci-fi and always open to new stuff.

These days I have time to read mostly commuting. I read different sorts of fiction and non-fiction. Unfortunately, not much.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you some phrases in Chuvash, considering that I come from Chuvashia. I can't say I'm FLUENT, but used this language to communicate with my granma, the true chuvash woman. I bet you don't meet tones of Chuvashs there :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Of course any help at your home, cooking and stuff in time free from walking
Ready to cook something on my own!
