About Me

CURRENT MISSION
Аs strange as it may sound, I have become un-enchanted to travel!
After years of dreaming, I'm packing a backpack for my first trip abroad and I want to visit Barcelona and Warsaw.
On my current trip I will be staying with my friends in Barcelona and here at CS I am to make friends in Warsaw)
I'm a bit anxious as this is my first trip abroad, so I would like to stay with people who speak English, Russian or Ukrainian to understand each other)

About me

Love plants and have a good knowledge of tropical species/
I try to get out every weekend in the forest or on the lake, nature gives me an incredible opportunity to reset brains, so when there is an opportunity to live there longer - I use it).
I'm calm and friendly, my life includes physical exercises and meditation on a daily basis, that's where I draw my strength)
I work as a belly healer and do facial massage, soon will be taking my yoga instructor exam.
I am studying to be a wellbeing coach at Samadeva University. That's where came the desire to learn French - to understand the professors better. And it's a slow process😀
I am also starting to learn about Chinese Tea culture and tea ceremonies.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love hosting guests and giving them enough care and freedom during their stay, and even when I lived in rented apartments, I always had guests, but I didn't use couchsurfing to host them.

One day I met some guys from Spain at a cafe and it turned into a fun winter adventure for 5 days. We rode down the slide, played guitar and talked about the specifics and traditions of our countries.

We talked with guys from Germany, standing in line at the store - and a few hours later my dad is steaming them in the banya and telling them about the peculiarities of Russian steam))

***
Now a new chapter is starting in my life - I am no longer in the role of a host, but a guest looking for a host here on couchsurfing.
Yes, I'm a little scared, but damn, all my life I've been surrounded by wonderful and kind people. I'm sure I'll find them here too.
