A passionate media professional and a person who loves new experiences. I am studying for a PhD in journalism at Moscow State University which is Russia's #1 higher education institution.

I don't travel very often but when I do, I'm absolutely loving it. Part of the fun is meeting new people and getting to know the local culture first-hand.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I strongly believe that discovering new places is best done with the people who've lived there and can recommend all the best places! I also love getting to know other cultures—Couchsurfing fits the bill!

Intereses

I love reading quality journalist pieces. Crafting my very own articles is just as exciting. In my free time I like to go to a theater or a museum or meet up with friends over a glass of good old scotch, a Bloody Mary or a pint of stout. I enjoy playing board games, catching up on hit TV shows and plain old talking, too.

As for sports, I'm into jogging. Occasionally I do some yoga and swimming, too.
