Currently can host from 25.04.25 to 10.05.25

I'm interested in different cultures, and I really enjoy meeting people from all over the world. I've traveled to over 30 countries and hope to see many more, especially in Africa. I'm also a big fan of electronic music and going to different music festivals. I had a great time at Exit Festival recently.

When I'm not traveling, I'm finishing my Master's in IT. I used to work as a data analyst and web developer, but now I'm focused on studies. I had a wonderful year studying in France when I was getting my Bachelor's degree – it changed my life!

I'm originally from Russia but I moved to Serbia after the war started. I want to meet people who believe in peace and respect, so I'm not comfortable talking to those who support the war in Ukraine or any kind of discrimination. Beyond that, I'm very open and welcoming!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing to meet friendly people and have a more local experience when I travel. Hotels are boring! I'd rather connect with someone who knows the city and can share their favorite spots and cultural insights.

Music, Movies, and Books

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Studying in France during an exchange year was the most amazing thing I've done. I was in a program with students from all over the world, so I learned about a lot of different cultures. Plus, I got to travel around Europe. It was a life-changing experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm always eager to share stories about my own culture and experiences. I can offer insights into life in Russia (or Serbia), and I'm happy to chat about everything from history and traditions to current events and pop culture. If you're interested in learning a little Russian, I'm happy to teach you some basic phrases.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can bring an open mind, a positive attitude, and a genuine interest in learning about your culture. I'm always up for trying new things, exploring local spots, and engaging in nice conversations.
