I am an exchange student from Russia. Originally I am from Moscow, Russia but right now I am living in Pennsylvania.
I am very passionate about traveling and plan to visit as many places in the US as possible! So far I've been to NYC, Washington DC, Philadelphia, and Boston.
I also love trying my hand at several things at once, and currently, I am studying Business Informatics and Bioinformatics at the same time. When I graduate I would like to work in the oncology field as I am motivated to help people battle cancer.
As for my hobbies, I love jogging! It is a great way to process emotions and just be alone with yourself for a while. I want to run a marathon one day.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am a very outgoing person and love meeting new people, especially, from different cultures and backgrounds.
I see it as a way to grow emotionally and intellectually.
