ABOUT ME
Easy going, open minded and cheerful)
I was born and brought up in a small but lovely city in the Far East of Russia on the border with China. That's why my major is the Chinese language. After a year and a half in Shanghai I moved to Moscow. And it's been less than a year since I work here as a Chinese teacher. I love my job! It's just so much fun to work with teenagers! I learn a lot from them!
PHILOSOPHY
I'm absolutely in love with exploring the world, meeting new people and getting new experience. I always look positive and try to enjoy every minute of my life. "Do more of what makes you happy" is my moto.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm looking forward to meet you on my way and may be sleep on your couch:)))
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Having quite many friends and connections has given me lots of chances to host and to be hosted even before I've learnt about this project. It's such a pleasure to be host and a grace to be hosted! I think Couchsurfing is always a rewarding experience which makes your life more beautiful.
