I am a gradute student and teacher/professor. This year I've spent as a teaching assistant of Russian at Hobart and William Smith Colleges in Geneva, New York and now I am about to start my trip around the States.
I am a kind, outgoing person, ready to chat if I have something to tell or to listen if you have interesting things to share.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am going on my Big travel in the States now that I am done with my work and need some help from kind people. I'd love to help others who would like to visit my home area, but I am not there now, sorry.

Interests

I am into foreign languages, taking photos. I enjoy basic things like music, books and movies. When I was younger, I loved drawing and still do it sometimes.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can teach you Russian. Almost like they do in college:) Ask me questions, learn about my culture - you're welcome. I might cook cherry dumplings for you - just make sure there is enough sour cream around.
We can look at my photo collection!
