Hello, I'm Anna! I'm 26, born and raised in Moscow, Russia. I speak Russian and English and try to learn beautiful Spanish, but my achievements are not that great (yet).

I've always wanted to travel the world as much as I do, and now I've made traveling and helping people do the same my everyday life. Currently live in Dubai, UAE, working as a Cabin Crew, flying all over the world on a daily basis. My schedule is pretty random, I don't spend much time home (and if I do, I'm probably having pre- or post-flight rest), therefore, I'm afraid I wouldn't be a good host. But if we happen to be at the same city at the same time, I'd love to meet up!

I'm spontaneous, adventurous and ready to try anything new. I'm friendly and sincere, I love making people smile, because smiles make the world a brighter and better place instantly. I may be a little shy and quiet at first, but give me a little bit of time (or a cup of coffee) and I'll be back to normal. Speaking of coffee: a big fan! I used to work as a barista in a local coffee house in Moscow, and I'm still in love with this culture. I always try to find the best coffee in every city I travel to, so if you know any secret places, let me know, and you're my new best friend!

Интересы

• Traveling. Should I really list this one here? There is so much to see in the world, so it's a crime not to discover it little by little!

• Attending live shows of my favorite bands. Music is what gives me as much energy as sleeping, if not more. It's what gives me strenght and cheers me up when I'm sad. When someone says they're not interested in music, to me it sounds like they're not interested in happiness. If you've ever seen your favorite band performing your favorite song live — you surely know what I'm talking about!

• Lomography. I love that feeling of making a surprise to yourself — you never know what you're going to get captured on that 35mm film)

• Learning languages and cultures

• Food. I'm not sure about all those extreme dishes like fried scorpios, bugs, bull's intimate parts and weird-smelling fruits, but I love trying new dishes. I can't cook, but do want to learn!

• Reading books and watching movies

• Dancing. Desperately want to learn how to dance salsa, bachata, merengue — I'm absolutely in love with it!

Классная вещь, которую я сделал(-а)

• Tried hardcore hiking in Guam jungle, almost died on the trail, it was hard, but funny and totally worth it!
• Met a guy with a knife on a street of Bogota during the first hour of my walk there. Said NO as he was trying to rob me, and he left me alone. Quite a scary experience! But now I have a feeling that I'm invincible.
• Shark cage diving in Durban, South Africa
