I am a classical pianist living in Cyprus. I love all the arts but I spend most of my day on the piano! Living in the Mediterranean allows me to enjoy swimming in the sea all year round. I have lived in London for many years and studied there, also in Moscow. Now that the children (two of them, girl and boy) are adults I can travel a lot more in beloved Europe. My preoccupation is to improve my piano playing , always to be learning and to be enjoying quality and kindness.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

After about 20 years of working on my own, the discovery that to be receiving further training and coaching is a wonderful thing for me, leads me to travel to seek it, as it is not available on the small island that I live in. Starting from Hamburg and hopefully moving on to other destinations, plus the opportunity to practice my language learning and to meet interesting and kind people, brings me to Couchsurfing.
