Profile information
Description
My name is Alexander Poroshin. I live in Germany (since 2024). Previously I lived in Russia. Professionally I am economic analyst and researcher in sustainable development. I studied and defended PhD thesis in Political Science in "Higher School of Economics (University)" in Moscow.
I can help with many tasks including gardening, housekeeping, farming, animal care, plant care and others. I have a big volunteering experience (mostly in gardening, construction and housekeeping) in ~10 countries in Europe since 2015 (through helpx.net platform - same like Workaway), mostly in countryside.
Among my most memorable volunteering helping activities I would like especially mention firewood chopping in Montenegro, olive harvesting in Italy, decorating (covering) of farm building roof with green bushes in Albania, grape trees pruning in Portugal, construction of entrance stairs with natural stones and concrete in Montenegro, feeding the animals (rabbits, chickens, turkeys) in Switzerland, France and Italy, lawn mowing in Hungary...
I am really interested in travelling, cultural exchange, making new friends, getting cultural experience in meeting new peoples, view various fascinating landscapes, learning new practices of ordinary life. I love to spent time inside nature, in countryside and to have sustainable way of life.
In my life I like to be regularly engaged in different types of social activities.
My hobbies include travellings with emphasis on nature and culture impressions, hiking, theatre, baking, chess, sports orienteering.
