Hello! We are a married couple, we travel together, we love to sing songs, go hiking in the mountains and meet new people along the way. Lilya is a biologist by profession, and George is a physicist. We hitchhike and also go on long hikes of varying difficulty in the highlands. In addition, we teach students of our university to go to the mountains, give lectures, conduct practical classes and lead hikes.

We have traveled a lot around Russia. In the European part, we have been from the Caucasus to the White Sea, we have also been on long hikes in the Southern and Polar Urals. In Siberia, we hitchhiked from the Ural Mountains to Altai and went on a hike in the Altai Mountains.

We also went on a hike in the Kyrgyz mountains in the summer of 2023.

In the winter of 2023, we hitchhiked in Turkey, Armenia and Georgia

In the winter of 2024-2025, we are going on a big trip to Southeast Asia, we will hitchhike a lot, study the local fauna, go hiking in the mountains and explore the wild shores. See you there!
