Energetic, enthusiastic and enjoy learning. I speak English and Russian fluently and have an expanding knowledge of (and love for) French. Planning to dive back into Spanish. Personality wise, I can range anywhere from talkative to quiet and love to explore new places and listen to people's stories. My love for the outdoors is constantly growing along with the enjoyment of books, tea, cheese, coffee, vegetables, and animals.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am interested in exploring places and meet friendly people; I think it would be neat to see a place from the eyes of a local and be able to share some experiences.
