About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Life

ABOUT ME

I'm from St.Petersburg in Russia, the most beautiful city of Russia.
I'm a guide in St. Petersburg, I work in French and Italian as a guide, I'm studying Dutch and will start guiding in Dutch.
I'm a French interpreter and translator, and I give French, Italian and Russian lessons in the winter-time, because I have not much work with tourists.
I'm a bit a dreamer, but also a realist (due to my age :)). I try to enlarge my point of vieuw, to understand different people. I like to learn something niew, I never stop :) But sometimes I'm very lazy, I sleep too much, in october-december. It is a sleeping-time in St Petersburg. I like travelling, I like Baltic Sea and Lithuania to where I go every year. I like Mediterranian countries, Italy an its language, Italians "far niente", I like French style of life with wine and fruits de mer, I like Nederland and its dunes and so many other things.

PHILOSOPHY

Tout est relatif.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I surfed in Nederland, took part in some CS events. I'm ready to help everybody who comes to St. Petersburg. Don't hesitate to write me :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have by now such CS experience. I was in Amsterdam where I meet many people from CS community. They hosted me, teached me, we spent many time together. Some of them became my good frends.
I also meet CS-rs in St. Petersburg, locals and travellers. I'm trying to participate more :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Films: Lost in translation, Avanti. 8 femmes, La pianiste (Yes, I like Isabelle Huppert:)) Some of Russian films (not so famous outside Russia) - as Sluzhebny roman, Moskva slezam ne verit.
Books: with happy end :) For this reason I don't read any more Russian classical litterature - it is too pessimistish.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Every time I see the sunset over the sea (mostly in Palanga on Baltic sea) when the sun goes in the sea hide I think: this is the best I've ever seen. And when I see majestic mountans, big or small, I think the same...

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you some words of Russian language, if you wish :)
