My skills

I've tried almost everything in Vladivostok: a tutor of English, a tour guide, a translator, a receptionist. I even had short experience working in a children summer camp (as a group leader), in a law company (as a secretary). I did some modeling and dancing during tough student years.
Most of all I liked to work in tourism, but this area is still not enough developed in Vladivostok. I feel sad that most of employers don't consider their employees as essential parts of their business. I think if you value your workers, you value your business.

Languages Spoken

Russian (Advanced) English (Advanced) French (Beginner)

About Me

Once I've read that foreigners tend to think Russians get older earlier than others: after school we immediay enter university, then we start working, we get married at our 20s (and get divorced before we reach our 30s). That's sad, but true.
I do regret I missed my gap year, all interns and opportunities I had during my student years. Now I am a graduate, I'm married (lol), I've got 2 dogs and I have no idea how to live my life. When I entered university, I didn't want to bother my parents. So I studied linguistics, the field I'm not actually interested in, but this option gave me scholarship from government.
Now I try to do things I really want to do: drawing, taking pictures, helping people and go volunteering. Also I like to make & send postcards.
I hope I can be useful for you, and volunteering will give me really valuable experience.
