About Me

I'm a girl who loves a score of both common and unusual things: horse riding (dressage), archery, cycling, studying languages, reading sci-fi and fantasy books, watching TV series, playing PC and board games and escape quests. I'm really interested in features and traditions of every single country. I'm cheerful and outgoing, ready to meet new friends.
Travelling to as much countries of the world as possible is one of my biggest dreams, and now I finally began making it come true. Though, meeting travellers in my own city is also a good way to get to know about other countries and nationalities.

Interests

Horse riding and other sports (e.g. volleyball, tennis, snowboarding, skating, shooting, archery, and so on); language studies; foreign cultures; cooking and getting acquainted to local tastes; music (playing guitar and piano a bit); postcrossing; board games.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love almost all the sci-fi and fantasy movies and books I came across. Also I watch anime sometimes (never was biggest part of my life but persuaded me to learn Japanese). Favourite music at the moment - post-rock, especially Maybeshewill and 65daysofstatic.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Crazy mountain horse-riding in Kazak Vadisi, Kemalpaşa, Türkiye.
And one more: getting lost among thousands of red torii gates in Fushimi Inari, Japan.

Teach, Learn, Share

Always eager to learn something new. Especially if this "something" is extreme.
I can teach you horse-riding . And I can cook for you some Russian food you've always wanted to taste :)
