Overview
About Me
Born and bred in Novosibirsk, Siberia, live and work there now. I love travelling and think am quite easy-going. I work at a science institute on an administrative position, am more often free in the evenings so will gladly meet up with those visiting this 3rd largest in Russia city.
I'm fluent in English and surely Russian, can help you with both if you need any practice. Have started learning French not so long ago after more than a year gap, so am at the very beggining there.
Love and have a keen interest in interior design, smart consumption, renewable resources and environmentally friendly processing, hope to work in some related to that field in the future.
Have 2 dogs and had a cat, so love anymals and just nature in general. I also got interested in vegetarianism just recently and now am reserching for more info, not so sure how it'll work for me, but am ready to find out.
And also - I'm going to Hong Kong in early December this year and maybe that can be a start of my Couchsurfing experince, have only the airbnb servise so far and am more than happy with it. I somehow have heard of couchserfing but never actually tried it.
If you're in Hong Kong and can give any tips on what to see or where to go or maybe will be able to meet up - I'll be just happy to hear from you :)
Have a good day everyone!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I think meeting people and getting to know other cultures are both very rewarding in life and help to broaden the mind and step out of the comfort zone. When you're travelling on your own it's also so interesting to meet locals, learn more about the cities you're visiting, get some tips on both the must see and non-touristy places. For me it's a great way to meet new interesting and amazing people around the world, share cultures and ideas, thoughts on life and interests and maybe even make new friends!
