A short movie about this summer https://vk.com/video1519744_456239122

I'm living in Saint Petersburg, one of the most beautiful cities of Europe.
I moved here when I was 17 from a very small town.

I'm working as a Marketing Manager at an international IT company and really enjoy my job thanks to daily communications with people from other countries.

In my spare time I like learning French, dancing reggaeton, playing the piano and singing, swimming and running.

I have an erasable map of the world and want to mark as many places as possible on it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe that traveling itself is shallow without diving into the culture. I'm especially interested in people's daily routine from breakfast preferences to national holidays, favourite literature and so on.

Couchsurfing gives an amazing opportunity to hang out with natives and learn about life in a country.
