Hi ladies and gentlemen :) I am Tanya, "... just a simple Russian girl, I've got vodka in my blood, so I dance with brown bears and my soul is torn apart", as the song goes. I am 22 and that's the last year of my master degree in European studies and I am very happy to spend one semester in the Helsinki University. I am cheerful and easy-going person, also honest, reliable and diplomatic (since that might be my future butter and bread). My hobbies are nothing special, just reading and head-schrinking, also love nature, forests and especially the sea. I am interested in (and practice some of) Eastern philosophy and psycology, world religions, history. I am quite conservative and family- and relationship-oriented. Try to stick to a healthy life-style... :D Love veggie food. Since I live in a student dormitory in Saint-Petersburg I can't accept guests. But some day when I have my own place I would start hosting too.
