A native of Moscow, I left Russia 10 years ago at the end of my journalism and French literature studies, to come and live in Paris. Passionate about the French capital, I became a State-licensed guide in Paris, France. After guiding at the Louvre, Musée d’Orsay, Versailles, Grand-Palais and other Parisian museums and exhibitions, I moved to The Netherlands for family reasons. I now continue to guide in Amsterdam and The Hague. I hold 2 Master’s degrees—in French humanities and journalism, and I continuously expand my knowledge of European art history and history. I’m not a lecturer, though. I strive to provide academic-level tours in a fun and accessible way. I worked for several years in journalism and marketing before I embraced my passion for culture and became a guide. I enjoy the conversational format of a private group, and I’m always happy to adjust the tour to your interests and needs. Another of my favorite activities is hiking that I practice all over the world (Nepal, Ecuador ...). Any of my tours can be given in English, French or Russian languages.
