About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I have two! to balance my life and to try all the thigs I want to try without hasitation. And to have fun on the way! this is the thirds one :)

ABOUT ME

UPD2: I settled down in Beijing, but this is just one room I'm renting in the appartment with 3 other ppl. So cannot host right now. I may move to another place by the winter. As soon as I am able to host you, I'll let you know. But you still can have a cup of tea or beer with me, don't forget about it ;)

Dear friends!

Right now I have quite busy schedule. I work full time and study at Uni at evenings. At evenings when I'm not at Uni I go for yoga classes. And if I don't have classes at Uni - most probably I'm preparing for exams :-O Yeh, quite busy...

However it does not mean that I cannot host you. It means I cannot spend much time with you guys when you are staying at my place. And may be cannot be very attentive. It also means that most probably the time we can meet is around 10-11pm (time when I arrive home usually).

If someday I'm not that busy, I'll be happy to meet you earlier, have dinner with you and show around. Weekends are also more relaxed for me. But at least 1 weekend per month I'm out of city.

Also because of my crazy schedule I cannot accept 100% of requests. Please pardon me if I say "no" to your request. I hope to host more when my schedule is not that crazy.

And yeh... I'm nice and cheerful girl. I'd like to meet interesting ppl, share and exchange. I would be happy if I can help you on your way )

PHILOSOPHY

I like the idea of free exchanges. So many things are for free out there. You just need to ask or to offer ) So from now on I'm gonna ask and offer )

Music, Movies, and Books

when I was a teenager I preferred books. later I switched to movies. and now I definitely go for music. Does it usually go the other way around? )

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I moved to China without money and any fixed plan, I found a job in Hong Kong and later joined evening marketing course in HK University, I've traveled South Asia and India, I did a sky jump from Macao TV tower (233m). I made my mind ;)

All abovesaid might sound amazing. But it was not. (Except tower jump;) So I made my mind and moved to Beijing to study Chinese, work part time and try to find what is good for me )

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach some Russian, and how to drink vodka properly (many ppl don't know how to do it! even in Russia!) though I'm not a drinker and prefer quality to quantity ) I can teach what to do and what not to do when it's a cold weather. I can teach you little bit about Chinese tea (how to choose, cook and drink, difference btw many sorts etc.)

I'd like to learn martial arts moves, Mandarin Chinese, Spanish, massage theory, dance moves (any style), cooking...

If I have time we can go for hiking or beach together, I also can introduce you to local restaurants or we can go to bar with life jazz... However cannot promise, all depends on my schedule... and mood ;P
