Hi there,
I live and work in Cambridge, UK, currently travelling around China, will be heading to Shanghai soon. I practice yoga, dance tango, like sunsets, long walks and good conversations. I am an experienced traveller and run my own business. We organise trips to nature destinations in Eurasia, places like Kamchatka, Baikal, Dagestan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan etc.
I have a degree in marketing and sociology and used to work for The University of Cambridge (so, can give you some advice if you plan to study there ;0)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to meet new people and especially local people in every place I go. I think this is the only real way of travelling and experiencing the country and its traditions first hand - through living them. I like to learn about culture of the place I visit and would love to hear all the legends and myths of your land.
