Hello. My name is Marina, I'm yoga teacher and photographer, and 100% optimist. I like traveling very much. I like to take a backpack by the shoulders and go to a new place. At the moment, I visited 20 countries, and I do not want to stop. I organize all my trips myself. I love the moment of planning my trip. I study interesting locations for visiting. I also like food very much, and many of my trips are connected with visiting interesting places where you can have a delicious meal :)
I like getting acquainted with new people. After acquaintance, I always make a visit to my house. I am a very hospitable person, I love when friends and new people come to me. Let's get acquainted and be friends!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Our world is big! I want to meet new interesting people. Learn their culture and way of life. Share your knowledge.

Interests

I have a deep passion for yoga and working with people, inspiring them to discover their true potential and achieve their goals. I find joy in guiding others on their journey of self-discovery and personal growth.

Traveling is another love of mine. I have had the opportunity to explore over 20 countries, immersing myself in different cultures and connecting with people from all walks of life. Each new destination brings a sense of adventure and a chance to broaden my horizons.

Photography is an integral part of my life as well. Capturing moments and the beauty of the world around me through the lens is something that brings me great joy. I am constantly seeking out aesthetics and finding beauty in all aspects of life.

These interests, from yoga to travel and photography, shape who I am and bring me fulfillment. They allow me to connect with others, appreciate the diversity of the world, and find inspiration in the wonders of life.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In the autumn of 2017, I went on a trip with backpacks with my 75 year old grandmother. That was incredible! A woman from the USSR first appeared in another country. She saw other people, beautiful cities. Grandma speaks only Russian, but she tried to make new acquaintances.

What I Can Share with Hosts
