Hi! I'm a 20-year-old student from Russia. I'm searching for new friends around the world :) I've never been abroad yet but I hope I can change it I love those who can share some great experience, it can be anything: climbing, camping, playing various instruments, doing sports, whatever, something active and cool. I'm rather talkative and outgoing. I adore getting aquainted with new people and practice my english. I've recently started learning German but it's too difficult for me as I've been learning it only for 1 year (so little time for a good skill, isn't it?) But I hope that soon I'll practice it too :D When I'm on journey I try to see as much as I can! I'm into making a lot of photos, walking along night streets, watching the sunsets from the rooftops, trying new food, discovering new entertainmens. So if you like it too, join me! So I really don't mind clubs, cafes, sightseeing, concerts and fests :)

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I'd like to explore the world and I'd rather do this when I'm not alone but in a company of cool people. I want to get breathtaking experience and try as much as I can :)
Music, Movies, and Books
I love rock and alternative the most and I'm into such bands as Theory of a Deadman, Scorpions, AFI, Blink182, Rammstein, Sum41, Three Days Grace, although I don't have any favourites in particular and I just listen to what I like, not only rock. I don't mind dancing in the clubs and listening to different music :) also interested in folk and would be happy to listen to anything charming if you can play it ;) I used to read a lot but now I simply have no time. My favourive writer is Stephen King and I also enjoy Russian classical literature, 'The Hobit' and 'The Witcher'. I used to read fantasy a lot. The Movies I like the most are Inception, The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, The Breakfast Club, The Devil wears Prada ,The Vow , Dead Poets Society, Eight Below, Stick it.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach you Russian and something about our culture if you're interested
What I Can Share With Hosts
I can share good mood and impressions from my trip and life experience :D I might be a bit shy sometimes but I'm very emotional! Just hope it's a kind of advantage ahaha
