I'm a laid-back person. I'm low maintenance, respectful, honest, silly, sometimes a bit sarcastic. I may seem shy or quiet because I'm an observer. I don't take myself too seriously, and like to connect with people and learning new things. Life is too short to have a bad attitude, so I try to stay optimistic. I take responsibility for my actions, and prefer to focus on personal growth rather than passing blame around. My life story in a nutshell: I was born in Saint Petersburg, Russia. Moved to San Francisco, CA with my family when I was a kid. Studied my entire life and became a computer engineer. Worked in various fields for various years. Quit my last office job in 2011. Spent 7 months volunteering in Hawaii, and 3 months exploring Costa Rica and Thailand. Moved to Spain to teach English in 2012, and have been roaming around Spain ever since! I currently live in Ibiza with my boyfriend. It's a beautiful place. I'm looking to make good friends on the island.
