I was born and raised in Moscow and lived there for too long, in my mind. That's one of the reasons why I decided to study and live abroad, from several options I chose The Netherlands. And I've been very glad I made this desicion so far. Here, in Rotterdam, I study International Business Administration.
I used to travel a lot with my family and I really enjoyed it. Although, we didn't go on package holidays, I still lacked cultural experience. I promised myself to hitchhike and couchsurf as much and often as possible when I become independent. Now, when I live on my own, in a different country, it's time to fulfil the promise.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I think it is the best way of traveling, learning new things and making friends ever! I'm fed up with staying at hotels because they are basically all the same, and you can't get an idea of how a country looks like from the inside, or what local life is like.

兴趣

Of course traveling and learning things about different cultures and countries, talking to people. Playing the guitar, listening to the music, reading, doing almost all kinds of sports (especially cycling and volleyball), magic tricks (I haven't practiced for a while, though).

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Visited more than 35 countries; travelled 350 km by bike in 5 days in Belarus, hitchhiked from Paris to Rotterdam faster than it takes by train.

教，学，和分享

I can teach you a lot of things (at least try to as I'm not always a good teacher, I guess). For example some magic tricks, guitar tunes, Russian language, cook vegan dishes.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I always try to bring with me a piece of place I'm from (mostly souvenirs from Russia), I'll be glad to teach you some Russian and cook a meal, or teach you some magic tricks (I should practice myself before, though).
