About Me

I am 20years old student from Russia, quite ordinary, but not boring, enthusiastic to learn about different cultures and lifestyles. "Every person is a book, each year a chapter" - said M. Twen once, and he was absolutely right.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'd like to meet new people everywhere. One day, during FIFA world cup in Russia, I walked into a big international crowd on Nikolskaya street and I liked the feeling of being a part of this amazing big world. It was suddenly so shocking, that so many strangers were united by one thing, that I even started to like football. I hope, Couchsurfing will do the same.
