I am from Moscow, Russia. I am well educated, open-minded and have a good balance between work and fun. I worked as a tour-guide in Indonesia, Bali island and enjoyed sharing my knowledge and impressions about that culture. Then I realized that traveling is my passion. I like to explore the world and learn about cultures, history, traditions, geography and meet interesting people.... I can't stop wondering how amazing our world is!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like traveling - to discover new places and new cultures. I think it keeps my mind opened and my life exciting. I hope Courchsurfing will give me a new travel experience. I am interested in exploring cities from a local perspective. And I would like to meet new people with similar values. Also I hope to inspire people to travel in Russia.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One day I postponed all my duties and obligations, surfed the internet, found some job connected with travel and went on my adventure! I started to work as a tour-guide in Indonesia, based on Bali island, and visited many other Indonesian islands as well... I learned a lot about myself and the world... Traveling broadens the mind :)
