About Me

I remember as a child I used to dream myself holding a mike making news reports from the world's wildest distant parts. I don't need news reports anymore;) What I do want more than ever - to grow spiritually, to learn about nature, people and myself through interacting with people, through working together, developing my skills and learning new things, sharing and teaching what I can. To learn to live pure, honest, healthy life bringing some love and beauty to the world.

I am an enthusiastic volunteer! I have shepharded adorable goats in an Israeli desert, worked at organic farms and small holdings, lived and volunteered in a monastery on an island, volunteered in a hostel, helped to felt hats in Istanbul and more...

I currently work in an alternative education, a bilingual Montessori school, with kids 1.5-3 years of age:) And I love it!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To make a travel special, to learn the real life and stories of the places I visit; to show my favourite secret places in Saint-Petersburg and Moscow (depending on where I am atm). To feel how we are all united and have so much in common - we all want to be happy, we all smile in the same language!
