I'm an art student of I.E. Repin Institute of Arts from Saint-Petersburg, Russia. Currently going through my 5th year of education. Working mainly in realistic traditions with Oils. Also practicing Digital Art.
Being half Azerbaijan-half Ukrainian, I was born in Ukraine. But spent most of my upbringing, childhood and teen years in Baku, Azerbaijan. Now living,working and studying in Saint-Petersburg Russia.
Big fan and practitioner of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, I enjoy electronic and dance music, classical(but all other genres of music too). Also besides my main passion which is Art, I have a great admiration and interest for Science. Trying to learn something from different fields all the time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new interesting people while I'm traveling. Plus in my opinion it's necessary to learn about the place from people that live there, and widen the perception of mine.
Well and traveling and exploring world while being an art student is really heavy on the wallet haha.
