Hi there! I love new experiences and cultures, and am an outgoing introvert. I write poems, I’m a dog person, I love travel and nature, I’m half Russian, I practice gratitude daily, and I love my family :) I enjoy singing and dancing, and am learning how to play piano little by little. My ideal night out is going to a poetry slam/open mic, going to Moth Stories, or having a bonfire out on the beach. I don’t drink but I do love a refreshing Kambucha once in a while. I typically don’t go out to bars or clubs- the dance studio is my club haha. I’m an open and loving person constantly amazed by this beautiful Earth and all the amazing people on it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet you and be friends and go on adventures big and small :)
