Hi! My name is Vika.
I was born in Siberia, Russia, and have lived in different cities: Tomsk, Irkutsk, and Kaliningrad. Right now I’m traveling around South America — it’s something I’ve dreamed about for years!
I know a bit of Spanish… :)

Besides that, I love hiking and nature. Even my job is connected with nature and hiking :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I love getting to know other people and other cultures. Because it’s truly fascinating!

Interests

• traveling
