Never pass up new experiences!
Travelling is a part of it - I've always got tickets ready for the next trip.
...But now having over 95 countries in my list started to loose the interest, as all places are about the same. Plan to make it over 100 in the next year.

I'm opened to all the variety of trips - skiing, nountaneering, diving, hiking, solo trip and family ones, or just with kids (as I'm proud to be a mother of four sons).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

People. All about people. Stories, destinies, way of life, household. You can't know it better than through couchsurfing
P.S. As you ask - no, I'm not a single mom. Couchsurfing is just about communication for me.

Interests

I'm keen on various activities, many of them about sports - alpine skiing, snowboarding (I had to do that as two of my sons said they are snowborders, but I'm better in skiing), wakeboarding, scuba diving, cycling, yoga, pole dance... kiting and windsurfing come next, but I need more training in both.
I have a coin collection with over 2000 different coins and notes. Always bring new coins from my trips.

Music, Movies, and Books

"Music of my childhoood" - Guns'n'Roses, Metallica...
Music is smth inside of me - usually I don't need music or movies - I prefer quietness.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ice diving in White Sea,
Climbed 5642 m Europe highest Elbrus Summit, both in summer and in winter. Two peaks at once - West and East 5621.
Trekking to Everest base camp in Nepal, ...

Travelled to the Gambia alone - the best experience ever!

Teach, Learn, Share

For 8 years I taught law in Novosibirsk State University.
Feel free to ask - I can teach you a lot.
I practice yoga for the last 20 years.
Having a lisense for teaching music from Dunkan Lorien (google for him he is impressive).
I'm sure almost everyone can do everything, just don't be afraid to try.
