Hey-ho andHi!
My name is Alex, i live and study in Saint-Petersburg, Russia. I do really love my city, but want to see a lot of other places and make my perception of the world more complete!
What you should really know about me is that i am a really kind person that likes meeting new people to create a real culture exchange. Usually i travel with my girlfriend or a company of my friends - it makes me feel like i am home everywhere!
Last year (2016) we (in different combinations!) visited some places on the South of Russia, went to Abkhazia, Germany (Tuebingen, Schwarzwald), Italy (Venice). Two years before we visited Paris. Every journey was unique - everywhere people seemed to be very different, but almost in all cases they were really friendly and happy to share their thoughts and emotions. That was great!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

This place gives opportunity to start new relations with people - not like in Facebook, just chatting, sending pics and stuff, but making something real, with real persons.
I find the idea of it really great!

What I Can Share with Hosts

- tell something real about what is Russia - now and before (most of the people know not much about it or know things that are too far from truth, as it appears to be)
- discuss things that are really important in our lives (which are art, place of the man in the world and all like that)
- be helpful
