Hello!!
I'm half American, half Russian. I love dancing and meeting people. Last year, I graduated from university in Davis, California, a lovely farmy area with cows and farmers markets, funk night on Wednesdays, and bikers everywhere. I knew I'd have to do something dramatic to cope with this so I decided to teach English in Spain. Here I've been living with a charming family since October and have fallen in love with them and this culture.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

Before I return to California I want to travel. Not the passive kind of- look-at-this-impressive-building travel but the kind where you meet people and the country becomes personal and memorable and you grow attached to it because you see a face rather than a building when you think of the country. I just found out about couchsurfing three days ago and it was exactly what I had been looking for and praying for! My 19 year old brother and I will be traveling through Northern Europe together in July and we would love to meet locals!
