About Me

My friends call me "Dora, la Exploradora".
I was born on the west of Kazakhstan in tiny city.
Scince I was child I used to travel every summer with my parents and my bro to Russia and Ukrain.
I guess during that time in my childhood I got the passion for travelling slowly sucking in my blood.
Lived in Astana for a few years. For last 15 years Almaty - is my home town.

Few years ago (it was beautiful Friday morning) I quited my job, booked one way ticket to Africa and finally became fulltime "Dora, la Exploradora". During that year I had discovered countries in south part of Africa backpacking and meeting amazing people on the way and later moved to South America were my road broad me to the heart of our planet - to the jungels and shamans.

That was amazing story which I am transcribing to the book right now.
