Hello, my name is Nadia :)

I would describe myself as workaholic, but in my free time I enjoy travelling and meeting new people. Getting new information and experience every day is crutial for me.
I love evrything about sea and my main passions and hobbies are related to water. I became a scuba diver when I was 10 (thanks to my dad :) and had an opportunity to dive in almost every sea in Russia and visit a lot of new places all over the world.
My main passion is sailing, and I am really sad that sailing season is so short in Saint-Petersburg.

Music, Movies, and Books

I quite enjoy electronic music and trip-hop, such as Massive attack, Bonobo and Young Fathers and Alt-J or bassically any mix of Black Madonna.
When I want to be empowered, I listen old classsics: Led Zeppelin, AC/DC and KISS.
When I am feeling down, nothing will cheer me up, better than The Beatles, Queen or David Bowie.
And when nobody can hear or see me, I listen Disco and dance like a crazy person :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Once I had a fist fight with octopus, because it has grabbed my dive computer and did not let it go О.О

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to exchange stories about my trips and diving in different places, but I am also intrested in learning different cultural traditions all over the world.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can teach you how to cook the easiest traditional Apple pie and all kind of Russian stuff, such as Pelmeni, Borsh and Herring under the furcoat.
I would not describe myself as a passionate cook, but I LOVE to eat and try new food combinations, especially spicy food. So.. I had to figure out how to sustain my hobby :)
