About Me

ABOUT ME
I have a crazy love for Istanbul! Maybe in my previous life I was Turkish? :)
And I really, really, really love Mountain Altai! Mountains, wind, sun - and my batteries are charged in a few minutes :)
Now I am DG of a small company in Russia. Before that, she worked in magazines for 6 years - 3 years in a glossy magazine and 3 years - in the largest business magazine in Siberia. And even earlier I had taught music theory and history in music school for 9 years. That's such an interesting life I got! :))

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Just a few years ago I found the opportunity to travel, and I'm thrilled with the world! The reason for CouchSurfing for me is that it is very interesting for me to see how people live in different countries to find out the country "from within", to visit places where local people go, to learn a little about the language.
Unfortunately, Siberians rarely travel alone and only in the most popular countries. I want to see the world not through travel agencies, but with the help of local residents. A woman who travels alone is a little scared, so the opportunity to be in an unfamiliar country with hospitable hosts is wonderful!

Interests

I dream to pass El Camino de Santiago.
I like to communicate, meet people, learn a little bit of languages: Italian, English, Spanish, Turkish ..

  • traveling
  • socializing
  • classical music
  • languages
  • adventure travel
  • tracking
  • local cuisine

Music, Movies, and Books

Classical music, techno, good rock and rock and roll, just all good music in the mood.
Science Fiction, Fantasy good, quality drama, not stupid comedy))
Book now - rare, almost exclusively business literature.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In 2017, my friend and I made a autotravel across Russia - 30 000 km in 4 months!

Teach, Learn, Share

I could tell you about life in Russia and Siberia. Yes, we have bears and balalaikas here))
I could share my travel experiences and hear about your experiences. I am a very inquisitive woman and I have a great interest in traveling.
I can teach you some Russian words and give you a Russian recipe. And be sure to bring you as a gift of Russian chocolate, honey or nuts! (or do you need Russian vodka ???))))

What I Can Share with Hosts

Maybe you will be interested in the opportunity to learn about Russia, about how people live in Siberia, to practice in the Russian language.
With pleasure I will cook something for you from Russian cuisine. If we find suitable ingredients :))
