Hey! My name is Kristina. I'm from Yakutsk (Siberia). I'm an open-minded, friendly, easy-going person. I love to have people around myself.

In my free time I meet with my friends, learn languages, play khomus (jew's harp), paint with acrylic, read books (biography, history, novel, fairy tales), knit and do yoga. I love to walk in the forest and listen to the ethnic/folk rock music.

My passion is to travel and do workaway. With that program I traveled in Denmark, Austria, Iceland.

I'm looking forward to meeting you :D

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people from all over the world. Each person is very interesting. During conversations you can learn so many things you've never known before. And it's wonderful to meet kind people who you can talk to and share moments with.

Teach, Learn, Share

Languages I speak, maybe some recepies of cooking, playing the jew's harp etc.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Culture. The culture of my folk, Sakha (Yakuts) is unique. We are the indegenous people in the North-Eastern part of Siberia. We saved our oldest religion, shamanism, that almost all the people over the world had, before they christianized, islamized etc.
