We've moved to Melbourne from Moscow to push our social and professional skills to a new level. We enjoy kraft beer and meaningful talks about sustainability, human rights and healthy nutrition. We are not hardcore party and more often spend our time in museums, theaters and fests.

About Stasia: Books are my passion. I work in a publishing house and organise Book Readers' club events. I read non-fiction, especially about inequality, sustainability and art. I was also involved in the environmental activism in Moscow.

About Vova (sometimes foreigners write my name as Vuva or Viva, but that's ok): I am an IT consultant, trying to uncover my entrepreneurial skills. I love chatting about politics (especially horizontal democracy, anarchy, socialism), generally interested in (socio-)psychology, work-life balance, start-ups and can't help making awkward jokes.

If you've decided to send us a couch request, please, include a name of the last book you've read in the request, that is important. Thanks. :)
