About Me

I was born in the North of Russia, near Arctic Ocean, in the cold town named Murmansk. Despite the fact that I have fallen in love with nortnen nature since I was a child, I really like to travel and see other parts of the world - for the nonce, the second place which has the same beauty as the North has for me was China. I was living there for one year due to program of student exchange. It was really wonderful experience!
When I was 16, I had to move in Belarus with my family. Now I live in Minsk, the capital of Belarus, study journalism and work in this sphere.
I have a dream - to travel around South America for some month. And, of course, I want to travel and appreciate beauty of other places (not only South America), gain a lot of impressions and knowledges in order to broaden my outlook.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I tnink Couchserfing is the best way to know a lot about the country you visit or the country your guest came from. It is better than living in hotel because you can communicate with interesting people and exchange your experience. What is more, local resident always can share with you information about best places and restaurants, which can not be marked in travel books or websites.
