I'm very open, lively person, who is always up to smth new, and as joke in Kazakhstan goes "I'm in for everything except hunger strike"( Я за любой кипиш, кроме голодовки). Chatting over the cup of tea with my friends, discussing world issues and love affairs, making plans or just dreaming are my favorite activities. Also I love hiking and adore Almaty mountains in all seasons of the year.
I try to make the difference through mentoring younger generation and that's why I changed my career of financial auditor to education program leader. As well as that I'm currently involved in research of alternative sources of energy ( night radiative cooling effect).
I'm a participant of amazing US program Techwomen 2015 (devoted to empowerment of women from Africa, Middle East and Central Asia) and you can see my profile if you are interested in on the link: https://www.techwomen.org/techwomen-mentees/diana-tsoy

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

“It is better to see something once than hear about it hundred times” – the well-known expression goes.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I can teach Kazakh cuisine and Russian language. Also since I was born in Soviet Union I can share the experience of being part of the unique and special system.
I would like to know authentic cultures of people and places and not to be tourist interested only in the tourist attractions.
