About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My mission is to meet as many interesting people on my gap year as I can. Help me accomplish this by hitting me up!

ABOUT ME

I graduated high school earlier this year and decided to live in Russia for a year. I study the language and culture, and dabble in Russian politics. I love travel and adventure, and I hate awkward silences.

PHILOSOPHY

Somewhere down the line, every philosophy falls to pieces.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can meet up with you if you're in my town, and give you a tour of what I know :-) (museums, clubs etc.), but I don't actually have a place for you to crash. My homestay would definitely not be chill with that.

Interests

I brought my electric violin, if you got a guitar, accordian, or bodhran let's get together and make some folk music!!!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Here I went hovercrafting over the frozen Baikal, tons of fun and only 100 rubles!

Teach, Learn, Share

My skills- violin, fencing, russian language, drink a shot with no hands. The last one is probably the easiest to teach, and the only one I've really mastered anyway.
