Hey! I've been living in Antalya for the last 2 years, and originally I am from Saint-Petersburg. Now I live in Kazan.

I work in animal welfare organization Voices for animals. I like cosy coffee-houses, books (especially Yuval Harari, Orhan Pamuk and book about the big picture of the world), hiking, snorkeling, boardgames.
International master in chess.
My favourite city is Istanbul, favourite place in Türkiye - Dalyan (highly recommend to go there!).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
