About Me

You could call me Sasha.
I like spontaneous travelling and activities. I am a city nerd, which means that with all my professional interest I always strive to explore development sites, public spaces and architecture.
I'm married and occasionally travel with my husband, non-smoking nor consume other substances :)

I am not always able to host people, but you still could give it a shot.

If you ask for a stay write BAMM in the first line of the request, I will know you are not a BOT :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Just tried once and now think that this community encourage a great culture of sharing.
Let's be honest, this is a great way to save money and travel more. For me, it's also an opportunity make new contacts and I find it fun.

Interests

I've been dancing for 19 years and I especially interested in contemporary dance. Also, interested in everything related to architecture and urban development.
I like outdoor activities. With a pleasure, I can ride a bike or walk several kilometers by feet.
Visiting other cities, I would be both glad to visit a museum and nightclub to burn the floor.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Took a 2-week spontaneous solo trip through Europe. And then one more, and one more for a month.
Jumped into the lake to get rid of water fear and went kayaking with one of my hosts for the first time.

Teach, Learn, Share

I could teach you cooking some simple Russian dishes, share a bunch of stories and give travel tips.
I would be glad to learn any foreign language/kitchen/lettering.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Places to visit in/around my city, give advice on trips around the country, or share a professional and personal experience. Cook some meal, hold a pleasant conversation, just make a pleasant company.
If you stay at my home, I can provide pillow and some cover, towels, kitchen and bath. If you like dogs, mine will most likely sleep nearby or in your feet.
