We are not on the road anymore and can host in Saint Petersburg! Usually we don't plan our life in advance, so the best requests are last minute or 1 week before you want to stay with us. We prefer hosting for 2 nights.

This is a joint profile of Irina and Aleks

Passionate travelers, visited 100+ countries!!! (all South, Central, North America, all Europe, all SE Asia)

What happened in 2016-2018: after several years of corporate office work we decided to fulfill our dream of long-term travel. We quit our jobs and left Russia to start our trip in Ecuador and then continue all the way down to Ushuaia. Step by step, we visited all countries in North, Central and South America. The journey has then continued to Asia and Europe (again, all countries visited).
At the beginning, just to think of this journey made us petrified, the world seemed scary and full of scams and evil people. We thought about one month or maybe two, but ended up travelling for 21 month. We volunteered a lot on the farms or hotels to learn more about the country where we spent our time. And to be honest, our main conclusion so far is that actually the world is not a scary or dangerous place. We've met so many kind, honest people willing to help and share that the only issue that bothers us nowadays is how to pay back for all this kindness we've seen on our way.

If you invite us, you'll definitely be rewarded by meeting open-minded people willing to share their culture and find out more about yours.

We were almost 100% airbnb during our trip, with over 70 families hosting us accross the world, but then we met some interesting people on the road who introduced us to CS, so we are now exploring this way of travelling as well. Now we regret we haven't started before
