Last 13 years I live in a small village in the north-west of Russia (50 km from Pskov). I keep an organic farm with a few goats, a vegetable garden and a herbal garden. The herbs I use to make natural cosmetics and healing potions. I'm also fond of textile arts: dyeing yarn with herbs, weaving on the weaving loom and sewing ethnical and boho-style clothes. I'm peaceful and tidy person, I respect personal boundaries of other people. I believe that I can be a pleasant guest and host.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I dream to visit different countries to learn more about thier culture, nature and history. Staying with locals is a better way to understand the country, its spirit and lifestyle. And maybe to make new friends! I hope that I can share all this with travellers in Russia.
