Post w Saratov, Saratov Oblast, Russia

Most of Russian using couchsurfing just for finding cheap accomodation in Europe, that's why you have seen a lot of hosts here.

If you coming I would like to hang out and show you city. In some case we can do it by bike (i may offer it for you). Hotels in city a quite cheap.

Good day. Saratov is a Russian province. In English, few people speak. But if you decide to go, be sure to go. Google translator (like me now) and google map will help you. Yes, but of course, of course, it’s better to be prepared. I think you will not regret. And to see the Russian Volga River is worth it.

Have a good day! It is a nice idea to visit Saratov at sumer. You will have exellent rest on Volga islands. Boats for rent.are not expencive . With help of google translater you can be sure that you will not be lost. It is better to have a buddy who will show you our sights. If at the time of your visit i be free , i ll show our historical places and we can go for fishing

Hello, Niels! Everything is true what was said before. If you need any company to explore the city please feel free to contact me too))

Извините. Вопрос в Саратове нет места где хоть иногда собираются люди с этого сайта в живую?

Hi Niels! You can't manage just with English if you need a wide plunge into the city and city life), but still if you go to see sightseeings to the central Riverside, for example, you find many English tables with description. Also, our waitress service at the cafes is also English speaking. Don't know about all the cafes and restaurants in the city, but in "Coffee and Chocolate" net of cafes there is such option, I checked. And all the hotels have English speaking service at the registration etc. Museums have English speaking guides. Then, our city is developed one, so there are a lot of people who speak English, but sometimes it is hard to find them at once in the street) So, if you have special apps on your phone: maps, city navigator on roads, cafes and events etc., some translator, you can easily manage just with English in Saratov. But if you need some history knowledge, discussions, travel guides or just people for chatting and helping you to manage your trip to make it comfortable, as you like, you can ask some persons from Couchsurfing, feel free to contact me as well, if you need some help or advice. Have a good trip and a good time in our city!

Thank you all very much with your information. This was very helpful!!

You are welcome! By the way, it is a good idea to set a regular meeting and create a speaking and discussion club, at least for summer. There we could practice English, share ideas, news and experience and make new friends.

Hi Victoria! Thats such a good idea. Seeing the number of hosts in your city it should be possible to find enough people to engage. If there is some cs event in your city and I am there, I certainly will attend!

Я согласен на встречу. Но английского вообще не знаю.)))
