About Me

I am a student, currently living in St-Petersburg, Russia. I haven't had the chance to explore much of Eastern or Western Europe. I hope to get the opportunity to see some amazing countries/cities, and meet new people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've often traveled the hostel route before and I find I don't typically meet locals or I end up doing a lot of things alone. My roommate in St-Petersburg suggested I check out Couchsurfing and so here I am.

Interests

  • architecture
  • music festivals

Music, Movies, and Books

I love independent movies and music. I'm currently really enjoying Halsey's new album. I'm also in the process of watching some 'must see films' that I hadn't seen up until now. Yes, I only JUST watched Pulp Fiction.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Before moving, I was a foster mom for cats. I got the opportunity to watch kittens grow up from the age of 1 day old to 3 months. It was absolutely amazing.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love languages and love teaching. It's what I do back home (teach) and so if you want to learn something new, or practice, I'd love to help.

Countries I’ve Visited

Canada, England, Netherlands, Russian Federation, United States
