Overview
About Me
I have always been interested in Russia. I do not have a talent for languages unfortunately, and I have struggled to get a grasp on Russian.
I have spent most of my life working in home repair and woodworking, and recently changed professions, and began driving a truck. This was partly due to my desire to travel.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I would like to find a host that can help me find my way around Moscow and The Golden Ring. Staying with a host will help me understand how Russians live. It will be better than staying at a hotel.
Interests
I enjoy spending time with my dog and taking long walks in the woods. I like to cook and going on picnics. I like to read and do artwork, mostly acrylic on canvas.
