Hello, hello! My name is Annie. I was born in St. Petersburg, Russia, but I moved to the US when I was little. I grew up all over California.

I'm a world traveler and knitter. In the last year I've been to five different countries and I'm always looking for my next adventure. I like to buy local yarns in all the countries I visit and knit myself garment to remind myself of my visit. I'm currently working on a top with yarn I got in Greece.

I'm also an avid runner, hiker, and art enthusiast.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to bake, but I need people to bake for - otherwise I eat up all the treats by myself. If you lend me your oven for a bit I can whip us up something delicious!
