About Me

Hey! First of all, I'm really looking forward to hosting somebody so don't hesitate to write and ask! If you'll write to me in advance I want to buy a folding bed for you to sleep because I'm gonna need it anyway.

Last summer I quit my job and went traveling. I had a great time and met a lot of great people. Nowadays I'm back into routine and I really enjoy that, but I want to still have the best part of traveling experience that is meeting people from all around the world. Luckily, I can do it sitting in my kitchen while also giving back the kindness I constantly received during my trips. So you're welcome guys!

I work in Yandex, "russian Google" as I heard it's often called :) I'm passionate about my work and IT in general.
I dance for more than a half of my life. I started with breaking and now I'm exploring house and contemporary dance as well. I took part in performances which were sometimes quite strange but then turned out to be a stunning experience and thanks to them I grow up as a person and as a performer.
I also open to new experience. Recently, after many years of just dreaming about it, I started to learn vocal, piano and acrobatic.
I really like sport. Anything! But especially I like basketball, working out outdoors, stretching, acrobatic. Will be great to do some sport with couchsurfers too!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To share positive energy and a good laugh with all fantastic like-minded people who are here. Including you!
To have a real experience of living in another country with another culture.
To see that despite another culture we are all so similar to each other!
