I am easy-going and positive person opened to meeting new people and getting new experiences. I love travelling and I have been to many countries . I was born and grew in Russia but after I started my international activities I lived in US, in Malta, worked in Croatia during three summers. One year ago I moved to Finland with my family (husband and two kids of 4 and 6). We got settled in Tampere, the second biggest city in Finland but the first attractive and comfortable for living (according to statistics). Now I study International Business Management (master) and Tourism. I am looking forward to learn more about history, cultures and traditions of different countries. I have friends all over the World and opened for more connections and interactions!

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

I believe that the best way to explore the culture is to look at it through the local point of view- so I joined Couchsurfing to meet local people in the countries I travel to.
