I live in the Tyumen Region in southwestern Siberia (Russian Federation). I have lived in Russia for 20 years

I enjoy gardening, woodworking, yoga, hiking, sports (cross country skiing, running, biking, roller skiing /rollerblading, etc.) and knitting.

I am vegetarian and do a lot of raw foods (especially in the summer). I do not drink, smoke, etc.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love being a host to friends and cross-country skiers. I also enjoy changing peoples perceptions and stereotypes about life in Siberia.

When I travel, I prefer to see how people really live and not hold up in hotels or resorts.
