ABOUT ME

I was born and grew up in Russia, near the North pole, in a very cold city named Arkhangelsk. After my studies in linguistic, I worked like French teacher with small children in a kindergaten. It was amazing, but I needed some changes, new experiences, so I have decided to go to Paris like "fille Au-pair".

7 years later I still don't have any return ticket. I live between two countries, currently work in Sales and as a journalist for different Russian magazines and websites, like travelling and meeting new people.

I'm optimistic, curious and easy-going.

PHILOSOPHY

Everything will be OK in the end. If it's not OK, it's not the end (c)

Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Unfortunately, I don't have a couch available, because I live in a very small flat. However:

a) I can advise you about Russia in general, my native Arkhangelsk, Paris or places to visit in France,
b) I would be glad to meet you in Paris, to take a cup of coffee or a glass of rosé and to show you some beautiful places.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In 2011 me and my friend Anastasia travelled to Italy (Milan and Lake Como) and Spain (Barcelona) as couchsurfers and it was just amazing! New people, new places, a little challenge when you take only one backpack... During this journey I understood that the world is open, it's not just a cliché, and that people will always help you.

This year with my other good friend Galina we would like to rediscover Italy in September. Our itinerary: Napoli (3-5 September) - Roma (5-8 September) - Firenzi (8-9 September) - Venezia (9-10 September)! We are sure: this trip will be great!

ABOUT MY COUCHSURFING PARTNER

I met Galina during English courses in Paris in 2013. We wanted to improve our level of English, but instead of this we found each other ;) Galina is brilliant, very intelligent, calm, always ready to help. And she cooks very well, especially Russian food! https://www.couchsurfing.com/people/gali-na
