I grew up in a huge Russian family that moved often. As a result of my family living in multiple locations in a very short period of time made me appreciate the art of meeting new people and making friends quickly. Once I got married I had the opportunity to become more adventurous than ever before. My husband rides motorcycles, flies paramotor and powered hang glieders, to name a few. With such an adventures husband I had no choice other than to relax from my type A personality and learn to fly by the seat of my pants along with my man.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I came across this site as we were planning our motorcycle trip from Arizona to Alaska, trying to do this trip on a budget. when I first cams across couch surfing I thought it was crazy but as I started going through the site, people's review, and profiles I realized how many amazingly fun people are out there for us to meet. Can't wait to try it out on this trip we're about to take.
