Hello! ‌I was born in Ukraine, grew up in Russia, currently based on New Zealand

Adventurer by nature, I explored 100+ cities in 27 countries and want to work and travel worldwide

I researched culture of childhood, designed educational programs in art, architecture and urbanism, plus educated children, adolescents and adults all around Russia from Kaliningrad to Vladivostok, in Uzbekistan and Turkey

‌ Also I’m consulting and managing spatial development projects and promoting the Child Friendly Cities Initiative. Provided design leadership to urban regeneration and public realm transformation projects in cities.

Extra:
• 5 years I'm ok without meat (animals and birds), but continue to eat seafoods, fish, eggs and milk
• 3 years I don't drink alcohol, understood that don't really like the taste, and effect to my mental and physical healths
• Like to drink coffee once a week, but matcha or green tea are better for my neuro system
• Friendly to LGBTQ+, children, pets, ecology

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing for me is the door to open my mind and heart to new people, cultures. Traveling for me is prototype of my biggest dream to be international professional and help children and nature all over to world

I'm looking for hosts and friends all around New Zealand from May to Octоber 2023

When I'm staying in Moscow, I love to show my own route through architecture of Russian avant garde and constructivism and new public spaces as a local guide. Made 15+ tours for with folks from USA, UK, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Netherland including excursions for children
