Hi!
I'm Lynn and I study for my MA at Warwick University. I'm Russian, but I'm a wrong Russian: I don't drink vodka and I don't like snow!:) Madly in love with Britain, its nature, culture, history, ales...
I'm open-minded, rather quiet, love good company, but don't do big parties, and I strongly believe that love and sincere discussion can solve any conflict in the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have one summer to see Britain AND to write a dissertation. So little time, so much to know. And, being a student, I'm on a tight budget!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you Russian (my native language) and play a flute/whistle/recorder and make handmade jewellery out of anything.
Really want to learn pretty much any skill you have, esp. if I can help you with something.

What I Can Share with Hosts

People say I'm quite a good storyteller, and I know quite a lot about history, art, technology and stuff, and I like to tell stories.
Happy to help the hosts with anything they do; I'm quite good with handiwork: mending stuff, domestic appliances, sewing, handmade stuff, DIY...
