Maria Selezneva (1986)
About me
I came to Moscow for the first time in the spring of 2003; then I was only a
schoolgirl from Belarus participating in a Russian language international contest that took place in Moscow. I was impressed with its power and glory, I enjoyed the places which I had only dreamed of before after seeing them in the movies… And I was happy.
A year and a half later, I came there to study at the Pushkin Russian Language State Institute. Years went by, I graduated and turned out to be a person who spent quite a long time there to get to know its hidden gems and cozy places. Now I’m full of knowledge which I would like to share with the people who come to Moscow to know it better – just like me in 2003.
I’m into all things travel and think that it’s better to get acquainted with the city in the way one lives it all the time. And also I like writing, so being a Spotter is a perfect thing for me.
Why Moscow?
Moscow is a vibrant and lively city, full of hopes and surprises. When you live here, you think you know it well. But actually, nobody knows it better than those who love discovering Moscow’s hidden gems and new routes, taking photos of small side-streets you’ve never been to, and reading about them.
