I was born in the north of Russia, and as a child I moved with my parents to the cultural capital of St. Petersburg. All my life I tried to find myself, that’s why I did a lot of things: I did ballroom dancing for 2 years, did gymnastics for 3 years, did competitive swimming for 2 years, went to a theater studio and performed at various festivals. In high school, I realized that I wanted something new, so I decided to see the world. I graduated from school with excellent marks, entered the university with a degree in International Business and won a grant to study in America. And now for the sixth month I have been traveling around the country with my friends, meeting interesting people and just living life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

All these months I have been traveling with my friends who already have couchsurfing accounts, so I finally decided that it was my time to create an account :) Overall, this service is an incredible opportunity not only to travel on a budget (and for students this is very important), but also the opportunity to learn so many new things from ordinary people who want to share it with you. I believe that traveling with people is important because there should always be someone to share the moment with.
