关于我

I don't understand how some people sit all the day inside and don't go out. Love travelling, taking it after my parents. Have ambitious plans about travelling around the world.

Graduated from Russian school and then started A level course at Taunton School in the United Kingdom. Now I'm waiting for the A2 exam results to come up. Hopefully, I'm going to a UK university this year to study economics.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Obviously, this service is becoming more and more popular because it offers cheaper accomodation in some expensive countries. But this is far not the only reason why I'm here.
After visiting Peru as a volunteer and meeting so many people from different parts of the world and sometimes with completely different backgrounds, I realised what an awesome thing it is to communicate with those who share the spirit of adventure with you. This service allows doing so and that is why I'm here.

I can't accept any guests yet because I don't have my own house - for the past two years I lived in a boarding school and now I'm going to be at a university.

兴趣

Once listening to the scientists talking about nature, cosmos and humanity at The Origins Project led by physicist Lawrence Krauss, I really fell in love with the logic of thier scientific approach and the way they were inspired by the nature and it's complexity. I got excited and started reding more and more about the universe we live in and that boosted my interest to astronomy and cosmology. I started reading very basic literature about it and in a year made a school presentation on the process of the black hole evapuration (Hawking radiation). So I'm reading quite a lot about it.

I find economics to be really interesting at a global and a state scale. My interest was whet after watching the Margin Call and being affected by the finanial crisis of 2008.

Travelling is a great part of my life now. Looking forward to visit every continent on this 'Pale Blue Dot'.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Seeing the sunrise at Machu Picchu after climbing it up for more than an hour. Such moments take your breath away and stay with you forever. Now I'm on the hunt for such moments.

教,学,和分享

Stories from different countries, I've been to many of them. I can teach Russian card games, how to play violin, Russian and Ukranian cookery, can explain some economics. Can talk about literature.
If you spend your lifetime thinking of how to pronounce the word 'borscht', I can help you with it.
