  • Description

    My name is Svetlana, I am 41 years old. I have lived in different parts of Russia and traveled to other countries. But now I have decided to go on my big trip without a return ticket. I don’t know yet what I am looking for — maybe I will be interested in living in a new place, or maybe this is just a path to myself. I love life, I love nature and I am interested in getting to know the nature of different countries and people of other cultures.

    I have a lot of experience in different activities, I am interested in learning new things. I worked in the tourism industry for a long time, took people to the mountains in a small lost country), I was a music teacher, but it turned out that it is not easy for me to work with children. I have a lot of experience working on a farm — I have been doing this for a long time and I really like it! In recent years, I have been working as a cook and developing in this, I am very interested in learning how to cook dishes from different countries, but I also enjoy sharing my knowledge of Russian and European cuisine)

    I am a very calm person and have no bad habits and addictions. I prefer to contemplate nature than to participate in noisy companies. Of course, this does not mean that I do not want to communicate) just in a different format.

    I am currently in Turkey - this is the first stage of my journey. I have found wonderful friends along the way, started painting with watercolors, and am discovering many new things - both inside and outside myself. The next goal is to visit different countries of Latin America! I have never been there. I am amazed by the natural beauty of these countries and I want to know what it is like to live there. I try to build my life according to the principles of yoga: to be in harmony with the world and with myself, to choose an activity that I enjoy, and not for the sake of earning money, to be happy on my Path.

    I love nature in all its manifestations and am not afraid of difficulties, I would prefer to live in the jungle in a small house without comfort than in a luxurious city apartment. I love to work on the land: grow trees and vegetables, take care of pets. I want to make the space around me better, cleaner, kinder, more beautiful - I love to clean and tidy up! I like to cook and take care of people.

    I speak Russian and English, I am learning Spanish and Turkish and would love to practice!
    I have many skills that will come in handy in life in the village. I am also a very fast learner and would love to acquire new skills!

    I write about my life journey, but the story is in Russian: https://vk.com/svetessa

    I will be glad to have new friends and I believe that I will find projects where I can realize my care and help make this world a better place!
