I'm an American from a Russian family and a jack of many trades but master of none.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Just out of school, no roots to tie me anywhere, so I'm looking to do some traveling, soul-searching, etc. This will be my first time visiting Europe, looking forward to it!

Teach, Learn, Share
