CURRENT MISSION

Getting through today is the immediate goal in my soft, confused life (c) J. Ames

ABOUT ME

I'm 38 years old, I work as an English- and French-Russian translator. I also learned Chinese (Mandarin) at the university, but I haven't practiced it for a long time. I'm married and I have a 10-year old daughter.

PHILOSOPHY

I love to live.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can provide a couch for the guests of our city and show them around.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've had little CouchSurfing experience so far, but I hope to have more soon! It's such an amazing idea!
