Hello, I am Krystina, a bit of a geek but not too much. I left Minsk, Belarus, in 2014 and now live in London, where I work as a journalist and hopefully grow as a person, overcoming difficulties and enjoying what life brings.

I like sharing experiences but can also keep silent for a moment when it's beautiful... To me, meeting new people is learning new ways of life, extending the boundaries of my mind. But also making a network of friends around the world to feel home everywhere.

Interests

I dedicate tremendous amount of time to my profession, which is digital journalism, but I always seek to spend more time doing what my other part loves - just being part of this planet, travelling, hiking, being in the nature or with animals, yoga, etc.. and I value good company and deep conversations about life.

Teach, Learn, Share

Of course I can try to teach you Russian and English, but also I love just sharing stories about life, universe, people.. Sharing tips about feeling home in a foreign country, finding your way when you're an immigrant and always believing in yourself!

Speaking about professional skills, I passionate about journalism, digital and data, tech, politics and communities - and can talk about it forever.
