ABOUT ME

I come from Siberia, a region in the north of Russia where the weather is extremely cold (in winter the temperature can drop to minus 50 degrees). But i've been living in Moscow for the past 13 years so i kinda forgot what real cold was like:)
I love to chat with interesting, smart people, travel, learn foreign languages and dance salsa:)) I'm a linguist and i'm doing my PhD at the moment. I'm also in love with Latin American culture and spirit. I have a dream to travel to all the countries in South and Central America.
Puedo decir que soy una chica rusa con sangre latina:P

PHILOSOPHY
I believe in God and my philosophy is mainly based on Christian views (Russian orthodoxy).
