Hey! I'm Olga! 

I live in Krasnoyarsk in the centre of Siberia in Russia.

Originally I'm from Kazakhstan, a country near Russia where I was born. I moved to Russia alone when I was 17yo to enter the university. I graduated from my first university and moved to Krasnoyarsk city to get master degree in Economics. 

I have been living in Russia for 12 years and work as auditor in international audit company. My work gives me a great opportunity to travel a lot in Russia due to frequent business trips. During the past 5 years I've visited agricultural and animal farms, aluminium plants and the biggest hydro power plant in Russia, natural conservation areas and the deepest lake in the world - Baikal lake.

In November'2018 I took an unpaid leave at work and started to travel. Before my "big journey" I visited South Korea, the Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia, India and Nepal. So I decided to return in the South East Asia and expand my traveling experience there.

I love travelling very much as for me it is a great chance to explore our huge world, to see different places and of course to meet so different and interesting people and learn they cultures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm looking for meetings with cheerful and openhearted people, from whom I can learn something interesting, expand boundaries of my knowledge about the world and of course give them something in exchange. I like to open new nature places as well as cities and villages, try new cuisines and learn a bit local languages

Interests

I really like active pastime - hiking, snowboarding, surfing and trekking in the mountains.

Music, Movies, and Books

I don't have any special preferences in music or movies. But I really love to listening to music and will join mine with you with pleasure.

I love to read very much and try to do it every day. I like non-fiction literature as well as fiction. My favourite writers are G.G. Marquez, E.M.Remarque, J.Orwell. A.Heiley.
