Приветствую! Меня зовут Дубинин Александр. Я историк и экскурсовод по древнерусским городам Пскову и Великому Новгороду. Родился и прожил до 30 лет в Перми. Интерес к истории у меня появился где-то в пятом классе. С 9 класса, с 2000 по 2008 год, в летние месяцы участвовал в археологических раскопках. Закончил Пермский государственный педагогический университет по специальности «Учитель истории». После окончания университета некоторое время преподавал в школе. Со второй половины 2012 года стал заниматься проведением экскурсий. Периодическое посещение северной столицы дало возможность познакомиться со Старой Ладогой, Орешком и Новгородом. В начале 2016 года я переехал в Псков. Помимо Пскова провожу экскурсии по Великому Новгороду, Изборску, Печорам, Пушкинским горам. Буду рад встретиться на экскурсиях. Путешествуйте и познавайте мир!
