Originally I am coming from Russia and since 2008 I am living abroad. I have spent 5 years in Europe, mostly in Finland and now I am doing my Phd Degree in Shanghai, China.
I like to learn new things. I think I am learning something new daily - from books I read constantly, from people I love to talk, from own life experience which I consider quite rich since I have tried tens different jobs in my life from cleaning streets and making fireshow performances to producing cooking show and being a team leader of Chinese government Creative Economy Cooperation Committee.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think couchsurfing is the best way to get know the country I am visiting, to get insight of the culture.
