I'm open-minded and kind person, believing in human rights, peace and respect to individuality. I have just graduated with BA diploma in history and now I'm open to the world without any precise future plans. On the autumn I'm going either to find a job or to start doing Masters, but during the whole summer I am almost totally free. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It is a great way to experience the world, wide your horizon and meet new people all around the world.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Jotunheimen hiking in Norway
archaeological excavations in Khersonesus
Mangup hiking in Crimea
International Summer School in Oslo (summer 2017) - it was the first time I have met people all around the world from ca 100 countries and it was a really life-changing experience for me when I realized so many things about world and myself: that the world can be friendlier and closer than I used to think and that so many doors are open to everyone, you need just to try.

Teach, Learn, Share

Unfortunately I can't learn you anything specific like dancing or something like that, but I am always open to (and interested in) a conversation and will be glad to exchange our life views and experiences. Obviously I can tell about life in Russia or share my thoughts about Russian politics or maybe get deeper into Russian culture/history if you are interested in it. Huh, I am also good at Norwegian middle ages and even wrote by BA thesis on it. :))

Countries I’ve Visited

Belarus, Finland, Germany, Greece, Italy, Norway, Slovenia, Turkey, Ukraine
