Im from Russia, Novosibirsk. I started my big journey 8 months since october 2023. 6 countries already Turkey, Oman, India, Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia. Now I came to Saint-Petersburg and i'm trying to adapt to Russia again. It's even harder than adapt to Vietnam for example😅

First time I use couchsurfing. I used bewelcome 3 times. But I'm real and not scammer. My inst: karpenkoartem

updates: After Saint-Petersburg I went to Moscow and Krasnodar, Sochi, and stayed in Abkhazia for almost 1 month. Now I'm about next trip far from my country 😀

Also I think I'm more experienced traveler. Now hosts tell me that I am one of those who have embraced the spirit of couchsurfing. And it seems to me that I have been like this all my life. I value empathy in people, unobtrusiveness and at the same time concern. Well, in general, I have mastered being a more adapted guest. Don't look at my long hair I understand perfectly well how not to clog the drain of the bathroom with it 😂 And I prefer to help with clean even when I cook some masterpiece for hosts) So for now I mainly stay in recreation centers or hotels, so I have only stayed three times on couchsurfing, sometimes I visit my relatives.

update 2024/12/05. I'm on my flight from Adler to Beijing throw Kazan and Irkutsk right now. And later maybe Shanghai and Hangzhou. Will glad to hangout

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To be honest russian environment not so friendly for russians. Even to find place to stay for a few days or hangout with new people. I feel sometimes international environment more close to me.
