I live in Moscow and work as a translator. Have been living in China, Beijing for several years which was not only amazing cultural experience itself, but also allowed me to meet people from all over the world and be exposed to "international" culture of the world. I joined Couchsurfing to expand this experience, to have the oportunity to meet and connect with local people while travelling and to provide the same oportunity to others. Right now I can not host people, but I m open to meet and show you around.

I have learned about Couchsurfing community back in 2005, but have not been active memeber since then and that s why I do not have much history here, but hopefully it will be changed soon.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love travelling, and the most interesting part of the trip is not only watching buildings or sigts, but connecting to local life style, meeting people and learing their stories and sharing experiences.
