Medical grad from Russia, now working in Anaesthesiology & ICU. KL-born, moved here in 2016. Living abroad sparked my love for travel. New cultures, sceneries, and food are my thing! I’m spontaneous, always up for an adventure. Big animal lover, loyal to my people through thick and thin.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I began my college life at 19, all alone in a land far, far away—Russia—with just two packed bags and a heart full of hope.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love cultural exchange and meeting people from around the world. I’m happy to teach a few languages I speak, share my home and local dishes, and offer a comfortable stay. I value meaningful conversations, laughter, and new friendships along the way :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I’d be happy to share my travel experiences with you, and hear about yours too!

Treat you for a meal or drinks ☺️

I’ve even helped a few surfers who weren’t feeling well.
