Workaholic spirit & wanderlust soul Well, I'm a 20 year-old girl with two native countries: Russia and Finland. I lived in Russia for 16 years and moved to Finland more than 3 years ago. Now studying Tourism, Hotel and Restaurant Management at Saimaa University of Applied Sciences in Imatra, Finland. Recently finished my student exchange program at the University of West Georgia in the USA. Just came back from my internship at the Cosmopolitan Hotel in Dubai, UAE. And I smile a lot :)
