I work in a bookstore in the Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg. I would really like to learn something new about people's lifestyle, traditions and culture in different countries

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

CS seems to be a great platform for meeting new wonderful people from all over the world. Many of my friends strongly recommend it. I already hosted people informally, and I have been a guest in my foreign friend's homes. I hope that Couchsurfing community will help me involve into real people's life in different countries.
