Hey! I'm first year Master's student in Mechanical Engineering, and my speciality is Mechatronic Systems Design. I currently live in Lappeenranta--a relatively small city in the south-east Finland very close to the border with my home country (Russia). I've lived in Finland for five years already and travelled around Europe for more than ten. I completed my Bachelor's in Lappeenranta as well, but my life wasn't only about studying: I was a very active member of European student association called Erasmus Student Network or ESN. Thanks to that I met people from basically all around the world, from Australia to Austria, from Peru to Japan. I also had a lot of fun on the way and I'm always more than happy to share all the stories, since I'm quite talkative (sometimes a bit too much ahaha). I can also tell you a bit about my work, we have a lot fun in the office doing the simulation of huuuuuge mechatronic machines!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I find the idea of couchsurfing truly amazing! It also helped me a lot in difficult situations as a poor foreign student in a new country ;)
