CURRENT MISSION

Reacting positively to any experience that comes up in my life.

ABOUT ME

I'm just a regular Siberian girl who decided that snow and bears are not enough for her to get a full and exciting lifetime and therefore moved to Moscow to get a better education, meet more interesting people and have a whole world of travel opportunities thanks to Russian capital's 3 international airports and 9 railway stations. After completing my first bachelor in humanitarian studies and European languages in one of Russia's top-5 universities, I decided to move to Germany to study economics and business administration here. That’s how I ended up living in Leipzig.

Speaking in general, I'm an easy-going and open-minded person, who loves exploring new cities and cultures, meeting new people and seeking an answer for the most important question in any human's life - who am I in this world. I also work in a hostel part-time, which gives me an opportunity to meet a lot of travelers and get inspired more and more each day to take off for my own lifetime journey.

PHILOSOPHY

Feel the vibe and follow it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can not offer my own couch very often, but I spend loads of time with foreign exchange students at my university, helping them to get used to living in Germany, showing them around the city and offering them help that I could have used after moving myself.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Not much yet, but I'm sure that nobody can give you more usefull tips on how to make the best of your time in a new city, than a friendly local who has a passion for travelling of their own. Judging by my own experience - having such a person around helps a lot to feel yourself more comfortable in a foreign culture.

Interests

Yoga, photpgraphy, travelling, indie and jazz music, soulful people, inspiring stories, international cuisine.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Setting up a voluntary student organization at my Moscow university which helps foreign exchange students to adapt in a new city once they arrive. Moving to a country of my dream to live and study.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you some Russian, I guess, and a couple of best vodka combinations.
Learn whatever you'll be happy to teach me in exchange.
And share some nice stories while cooking together :)
