Born in Moscow and raised partly there and partly in Munich, I developed an early fascination for the contrasts between cultures, historical perspectives, and political and social systems.
My background is in social psychology, so I focus on the interactions between history, the present, the environment, and the individual.
I have lived in Berlin since 2004 and was involved in event management for the city's diverse subcultures from an early age. Berlin's alternative side is still one of my many homes.
I love exploring Berlin's history in the context of changing eras and discovering the city's hidden treasures.
After several stays abroad (including in West Africa, Marseille, Poland and Barcelona), I seized the opportunity to lead tours through Scandinavia, Poland, and the Benelux countries. I completed training as a certified study tour guide at the Vienna Tour Guide Academy.
