Overview
About Me
I just recently moved to Kansas and I am pursuing my PhD in Couple and Family Therapy :) I work as a Therapist as well and provide counseling services for people with substance abuse, mental illness, suicidal ideation and relationship problems.
I am a wanderer to the bone and I am constantly exploring the world :) I am deeply connected to my homeland (I was born on Lake Baikal) and I enjoy being in the wilderness, meeting sunrises and sunsets, and watching beautiful cloud formations. I am a photographer and I hope one day to make a living out of my passion for nature photography.
I love meeting new people, hear their stories, share my passion, be surprised and fascinated...it makes me feel the most alive.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I believe in the idea of giving :) If everyone on this Earth was able to follow his dreams this world would be full of happy people. I believe Couchsurfing adds to the happiness of the world 🌻
