    Travelling

  • Description

    I was born and raised in a small town in Russia, 800 km from Moscow.
    At the age of 15, I hitchhiked for the first time with my friends. Every summer we hitchhiked to the Black Sea and lived there in tents.

    After finishing school and college, I worked as a veterinarian in a neighboring city.
    After 2 years of practice in this field, I realized that my soul requires something creative and more travel.
    I learned to weave braids and dreadlocks and began to live in different cities of my country - St. Petersburg, Moscow, Anapa.
    By the age of 24, I had seen about 15 cities in Russia, arriving there mostly by hitchhiking.

    The first time I went abroad with a friend, it was a neighboring country - Belarus. and then I admired how truly different life is in other countries.
    One day my friend told me about life in Goa. And I decided to come soon. then I visited several more regions of India. It was the most amazing adventure! And I realized that the world is much bigger than it seems. I wanted to live in different countries and learn about the culture, I liked communicating with locals and different travelers and I was finally convinced that traveling is my passion!
    Subsequently, I hitchhiked around Turkey and Armenia, I lived in Georgia and Nepal. And now I'm in India.

    I'm learning how to edit videos and write my own travel blog.

    I had a dream. I want to travel around the world.
    When my friend found out about this, he asked why I don’t participate in volunteer programs? I didn't know anything about it. he shared his experience and I decided to try it. I think it will be an amazing experience.

    The most important thing in life is to enjoy vivid emotions. Travel and new experiences allow me to do this.

    I’ll say a little more about myself: I really love beautiful nature and animals, as well as architecture and various creative arts, yoga. I know how to drive a motorcycle and I'm going on a big motorcycle trip. And I am a vegetarian more than 10 years.

    This was a short story about my life. I think I can talk for a long time. But I'll leave it at that for now.
    Thank you for reading this to the end!
    See you 👋
