Good time of the day, dear friend. My name is Ekaterina and I am a master student of Higher School of Economics, Moscow. I extremely adore traveling and always do it with my beloved boyfriend Ivan (https://www.couchsurfing.com/people/lhnvkv).
We have been together in such countries as Czech Republic, Germany, Belarus, Georgia, Thailand and we really want to increase the number of visited countries.
Now we want to explore Europe and want to start new type of traveling. We don’t want to spend times on boring excursions in stuffy buses, but we want to know more about living in foreign country from inside.
We would be extremely happy if you will help us to make our dream real by telling us real facts about the culture, habits and traditions of country where you live.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couchsurfing because I realized that traveling with the aim of seeing the main sights and going to famous museums is boring and uninteresting. I would like to fill my next trip with communication with interesting people from other countries who will help me to broaden my horizons and plunge into their culture with a head. I think this is something that is really worth doing while you are young, energetic and capable of adventures.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: relaxing, energetic (it depends on my mood), moreover I like alternative music (Three Days Grace, System of a Down, Bullet for my Valentine etc.)
Books: I do love novels (Gone by the wind, Les Miserables (the Outcasts), and also classic detective stories (Sherlock Holmes)
Films: The Help (one of the best films ever), The green book and Harry Potter of course.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Me (and members of our team) took second place in very difficult moot court competition and won as a price a trip to the Netherlands with opportunity to visit the most famous international courts! It was extremely great experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

Me and my boyfriend can tell you all that we know about life in Russia, about our traditions and everyday routine.
Moreover, I can tell you a bit about law and cyber security because it is a main theme for me in studying.
And also I can describe my experience from Fifa World Cup 2018.

I am always open for discussion, so I think that we would definitely find something to talk about.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can easily bring to the hosts some memorable souvenir or a special product from Russia, which they would very much like to have or try.

Moreover, I hope that I will be an interesting collocutor for you and we will have lots of topics to discuss.
