Hello everybody!

I'm Natalie, 30-years Ural girl. I'm easy-going, communicable and friendly.
My philosophy: Today I'm better than yesterday!

At May of 2019 I decided to leave my comfort zone and my job to live abroad.
Volunteering in hostels over the Europe for a few months I've decided to work and live in Croatia. And since 2020 - day by day learning how to be an expat in a Balkan country.

For 7 years my speciality was HR-management (human resourses), so as you already guessed – l'm interested to connect with people, especially with extraordinary and creative people.

I started with CS to simply see what locals see, and was insanely lucky to meet amazing people and friends in the community

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

There are five the main reasons for couchsurfing:
1) to see the world
2) to meet new people
3) to start the brightest life ever
4) to have a practice in English
5) So it's time for adventure!

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Not only one!
I jumped with a parachute without an instructor, climbed to the top of the Ural mountain Iremel without any special preparation, jumped over a bonfire (haha that's some russian spring tradition)..
Quit my job to travel!
Got to the top of Olympic mountains alone at my birthday. That was extremely, but on the 2900meters you hear you thoughts and feel the sky. And that's unforgettable.
Haven't slept for 4 days.
Survived in Norway
Swimming in the mountain river (temperature of water was +10°c)
