Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on Couchsurfing because I want to experience travelling without the traditional support of a partner or family and meet new people.

Staying with a local would be a much more enriching and fun experience to me than if I was alone in a hotel room.

In my current home, I have 5 roommates who would not appreciate hosting others like I am interested in doing. But when I size down to a more personal space, I would like to return the favor and host others who would like to visit my city.

Interests

• running
• cycling
• backpacking
• russian language
