Hey,

I am half french, half russian.
My third half ;) is lost between clouds and trees.
I grew up in different cities near Paris, and I did medical studies in Paris. I have lived 2 years in the UK : Edinburgh, London, Manchester, a few years in Russia, 2 months in Shanghai.

I a respectful and a calm person. I am not usually bringing the party at home. I like real talks, long walks, quiet places. I like sunsets and small rivers, forests and messy gardens. I like hiking in nature.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Maybe, one day, I'll ask you for your friendship and place where to stay.

And one day I will have enough space in my flat to invite you.

If you like spending time with your guests, introduce me to the places that put a smile on your face, that make your heart missing a beat. If you don't, then don't worry, i'll be wandering around the city all day.

Interests

I love drawing and painting. And music. The music I am listening to while drawing is setting the landscapes and the story of my characters.
I enjoy movies, going to concerts, I like playing the violin and classical music, I like dancing.
I have a blog I keep updated with some of my artwork. You can find it here.

I am a fervent practitioner of yoga (my aim is daily yoga practice) and ballet.

The other part of my life is medicine.

It's a big thing that I am not going to open here.

I love street photography. I can walk hours and hours outside, looking for some little pieces of life to capture. Noticing all the beautiful things nobody notices because they're walking too fast...

I like tasting good wine (and I might say, I am not bad at tasting, I have sope training). I am sharing this interest with my dad, who's really into it.
However I am not a big drinker and usually one glass of wine is enough for me to appreciate it.

I love hiking ! I did hikes in France (Alpes and Pyrénées), In England (Lake district), and in China (most of the hiking places on the east side)
Now, I am looking forward to start hiking in my region. (île de France)
