About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm a just-graduated, Russian-born, U.S.-based couch surfer. I enjoy seeing the world and try to travel to as many places as my wallet will allow. I've had great luck to live in Paris for four months as a study abroad student and am now staying in London for a month while working as an intern. And now that I'm here, I want to visit some other European countries as well!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I haven't had an opportunity to host yet, but I have used CS when traveling in Europe, during my 4-month study abroad in Paris.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've only couch surfed once, when I visited London in the winter of 2012, but I greatly enjoyed the experience. I traveled with a friend and got to meet two other couch surfers. The hosts were very nice and helpful and made the stay super fun!

Interests

Music, Movies, and Books

Currently in a Russian rock kind of mood. I like books with a bit of humor - like Douglas Adams' The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, - and movies that are not complete rubbish.
