Hello guys!
My name is Tamara,
I am from the beautiful St. Petersburg.
In 2014 I graduated and then worked as a teacher of French and English. I started travel back in September 2015. I spent one year in Europe, volunteering in hostels and farms. I lived in Spain, France, Italy. Then I came in Buenos Aires, spent there three months, also working in a hostel. After South America I moved in Mexico, then in Guatemala. Last year I spent in a kindergarten in China working as an English teacher.
Currently i'm studying in Brussels, Belgium
