🌿 About me

Hi! My name is Aigul, I'm from Kazan, Russia.

Since September 18, 2025, I've been traveling around India on a one-year visa - it sounds easy, but in reality, it's a real adventure 😅
I came not as a tourist, but as a traveler, to live with local families and see the real India and Nepal, Shri Lanka - not the one in the pictures on the Internet.

I practice yoga and meditation, I'm looking for inner resources and I want to visit the most sacred places (if you know such places, please tell me).
I've been a vegetarian for over 12 years, so I'm looking for a place to live and people who are close in spirit.

I'm interested in culture, spirituality, simple life and live communication — not just Indian sweets. 🍛

I enjoy studying local flora and fauna and I love animals)

I will be glad to meet you, share my experience and the history of the journey.
My social networks are here @aigul_yoga — come and "harass" me legally 😄

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Traveling is my passion. I want to immerse myself in the real, authentic way of life of people from all over the world, understanding their culture, traditions, and everyday life. My goal is not just to see famous sights, but to walk along less traveled paths and truly connect with the world.

The most amazing thing that's happened to me lately is travel. In September 2025, I bought a one-way ticket. I never cease to be amazed and inspired.
