Description
Since chldhood I got used to spend summers in grandma's village where she had goats, pigs, rabbits, hens and a big garden. So I got used to take care of animals, work in garden, work with hand tools. Cannot say I have huge skills and experience, just was helping my grandma and auntie every year doing what they needed, building and painting fences, watering, digging, sawing etc - any necessary works for country life.

I left Russia 2 years ago because disagree with war and putin's illegal regime, constantly living in Kazakhstan, now travelling in Europe. During trips I'm mostly interested not in museums and beaches, highest priority is people, to see real life, how do people live today in different places of the world.

I don't have any allergies or any
special food preferences.

More details about your skills
I teach everything I know myself. Since 17 I give private lessons according to the school curriculum, later was also giving driving lessons. One day decided to fill the lack of knowledge in the field of psychology to teach more effectively so now also consulting as psychologist.

Also had several years experience in IT, it was related to repairing and configuring computers and teaching engineers.

Almost whole life I was spending summers in a village so have some experience in gerdening, taking care of animals and working with hand tools.
