Hi there! I'm Victoria from cold Siberia :) Now I'm in the USA for an academic year, so I would like to meet new people and have some fun with them! (Grinnell, Iowa) - a teacher of Russian as a foreign language - have a lovely cat Basya - in love with her and all other animals - grow flowers - music lover - like reading the books - want to take a dog from a shelter - have a dream to visit as much places as I can etc...
Interested in Animals
Interested in Books & Literature
Fluent in English

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
Well I think it's a great opportunity to meet new people and listen to their stories. Also I think that only communicating with people who live in places which you visit you can understand these places.
Music, Movies, and Books
Music - I'm listening to all kinds of music Movies - drama, horror movies, old Soviet comedies Books - I'm fond of reading fiction books
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Once I've saved my friend when she fell through the ice. Dangerous Siberia :D
Teach, Learn, Share
- can cook tasty pancakes - can help you with Russian - can advise you lots of good movies and books - can speak with you endlessly - can tell you about life in Russia and the stereotypes (omg, I live in Siberia and surely bears live with us haha)
What I Can Share With Hosts
I can show you that Russia is a country which is worth to see. Russians are very kind and we like to speak with people. We think that a good conversation can open your soul to a person. I'll tell you about my traveling experience and surely about Baikal - the deepest and the cleanest lake in the world. I'm in love with it! And... i'll show you pics of my lovely cat :)
