About Me

Hi there ^_^

I’m Nika, a traveler, an artist and a teacher. I absolutely love my lifestyle.

I was born in a small town of Russia but currently live in Magdeburg, Germany. I used to be a full-time English teacher, but now I concentrate on my art. I paint, do digital paintings and designs, organise exhibitions. I still teach English online a bit and create materials for learning it.

At the moment my husband and I are hitchhiking from Germany to Georgia visiting places on the way.

crazy stuff happened to me over this platform:
•being attacked (!!!) by a guy with a machete on the walk with my host in Wrocław, Poland
•being robbed by another couchsurfer at my own place (300€ and a credit card data) and having no credit card and no money for the last 3 months of my internship abroad
•having married my Berlin host Niki! ❤️

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love cultural exchange and living at this very moment when I’m around people who are on CS and probably having very similar life views as me

Teach, Learn, Share

To learn:
I’d like to hear more advice about hitchhiking and camping.I will be extremely happy to learn how to play the guitar or any other musical instrument. I would love to have language lessons or tandems (learning Spanish rn) or even just a little introduction to the languages from my guests and hosts.

To teach:
I will be happy to teach you some Russian, English or even German. I can show you how to make traditional Russian foods (pancakes, little cheesecakes, Oliver salad, okroshka, etc). I can give some drawing / painting lessons. I can give you tips about hitchhiking and travelling in the countries I’ve been to.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I would be glad to share the meal together and to show you my city
