Hi! I'm Daria and I've been a Civil Engineer until a few years ago. I quit that and never looked back. I've been living in Brazil for seven years and then went back to Russia for a short period. Two years ago I visited the US for the first time and fell in love. I love it here and can't get enough, I want to visit every little town in this amazing country.
I will be so happy if you could open your door and share a bit of your experience with me in this amazing journey. Can't wait to meet you!
