About Me

ABOUT ME

Hi! My name is Yan. I'm from Belarusian, but couple of years moved to Wroclaw for PhD studies, where I spending half of my time. In my free time I'm working in NGOs in the field of non-formal education for young people. I also love to dance latin dances like salsa, bachata, kizomba, doing yoga, traveling and horse riding.
