Hello, my name is Nick! I’m from Saint Petersburg. I was born in Russia, but now I live with my girlfriend Katie in a beautiful country - Italy. I finished my bachelor's in Russia, and had 2 exchange semesters - in Turkey and in the Czech Republic! Currently, I'm trying to get a Master's degree in Digital Management in Pavia, Italy.

UPD Autumn 2025: We're in Vilnius, Lithuania now for half a year, so it's our 8th country of living, heheh

Italy is our 7th country of living after Russia, Turkey, Czechia, the Philippines, Serbia, and Georgia. So, I think we can tell a lot about these countries because my experience is a bit more than the usual tourist PoV.

Also, I have a remote job in the financial sphere. I love it, but sometimes I have to work during the weekday :)))
To be honest, my dream is to visit all the countries. What is more, I'm really interested in international communication, hope you will help me with this.

When I travel, I like to walk as much as possible and explore the environment. It is very interesting for me to find out how people live in different countries, what they eat, and what they think about! That's why I'd rather choose a pleasant walk than go to a club.

If you wanna know more about me, feel free to check my inst: n1cky_hs
It's not a self-promo, just an option to check that I'm not a bot, hah

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

As I said I adore talking with people from different countries and Couchsurfing definitely helps. It's obvious, but sharing cultural exp is so interesting and important!
Moreover, my motto is that help and a good attitude always come back: today you helped someone, and tomorrow they will help you <3

教，学，和分享

We could talk about management, politics, urbanization, and history. I am also a vid fan of football, computer games, and geography. Indeed, I can talk for hours about all this! But most of all about football! This has been my passion since I was 6 years old, since the 2006 World Cup (yes, the one where Zidane hit Materazzi :) )

I also love Asian food! I'm not sure if I can cook it well, but my girlfriend makes very tasty dishes! Moreover, I would be happy to drink beer with you, or walk with you with a bottle of water :D

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I would like to share opinions about hot topics you find interesting; we can teach you how to play psychology games with a company of friends, cooking, and basic rules of how to play guitar. Also, I'd be happy to share travel life hacks!
