Hi! My name is Vitaly, I am a native Russian speaker from Krasnoyarsk - a city in the heart of Siberia. People say that Siberians speak the purest version of Russian... Well, who am I to judge? ;) I love video games, cooking and travelling. And languages - they are not just a passion but rather a philosophy, a part of me. Because of my work and family, I am constantly balancing between four languages in my everyday life (Russian, English, Italian and Norwegian) which taught me a great deal about learning a foreign language - something I would gladly share with other people. For almost ten years I have lived in Norway where I worked as a petroleum engineer but just recently I have moved to Germany. I am therefore currently actively learning German and would love to find a tandem language partner to practice it in exchange for Russian. I am curious, down to earth and easy to talk to (one can always hope). Language is a means of communication - so let’s communicate! :)
