Hello, my name is Nikita, oh yes, such a strange russian name for a boy! You can call me Nik, it's ok:)

I'd like to have fun!
I like studying languages, it's a good work for my brain, I really enjoy it! I have some friends from Latin America and France - so my Spanish is ok (they say) and my French is more or less ok (they also say) - I also studied German, just had a little practice - so I'll be happy if you help me to improve it!

I work in a hostel in Moscow - it is a small hostel organized by my friend. A really nice job, I enjoy a lot! I like meeting new people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

A new experience for me, new people, new opinions, new life:)

Well, it was an amazing trip to Paris this year :)
