About Me

ABOUT ME
I was working on Deutsche Bank IT project as QA engineer for 1,5 years.
In parallel I worked with China as Foreign Trade Manage and Translator from mid 2011. There was a lot of business trips to China, I have visited almost every big city in China. I love China very much, my most favourite food is Chinese!
Countries (3) and cities I have been to:
- China — Shanhai, Wuxi, Suzhou, Qingdao, Dalian, Weihai, Weifang, Harbin... don't remember all the places.
- Bulgaria — Bansko
- Egypt — Sharm El Sheikh

WHAT I LIKE TO DO
Learn new things and get new experience of everything. Take challenges to prove myself that I can make impossible possible. Find new friends, explore new places, new countries, get the local experience of life.

USA GREEN CARD
In 2014 I have won the Green Card, in November 2016 I'm finally moving to U.S.
I have no friends over there so I will be grateful for any help :)

I'm glad to accept guests in Moscow, Russia by my family members and in U.S. when I settle there.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet locals from all over the world and truly immerse in the culture and life of the locals. It is really different experience when you do what the locals do, eat what they eat. I have a few very good friends in China and we spend lot of time together the when I was in China. It was really amazing to NOT leave and eat in big Hotels. Them have inspired me a lot during all the time we know each other and gave me lot of life experience, different angels of view.

I'll host in U.S. when I get my apartment there, but I can host in Moscow by my family members anytime.
