Hey! ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀
I was born in an amazing place in Russia - Siberia. Yep, it’s a really cold place BUT there’s something that I want to tell you: ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀
1. There’s no snow in Siberia in summertime . ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀
2. There’s no bears on the streets . ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀⠀
3. Not every Russian drinks vodka (!) ⠀
⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀
And I can dispel many myths about Russia :)
Ok, now about me: I worked as a tour guide in such countries as Thailand and Turkey and also I had a long term job in Bulgaria.
I love traveling and exploring new places. Especially I like discovering different culture features and I guess the best way for it - communication. I’m open-minded, cheerful and always ready for adventures:)
I like different activities, meeting new people and hang out together. ⠀

I’m a photographer and social media manager

I’m from Novosibirsk but now living in Krasnoyarsk. ⠀Currently travelling around Thailand.
