CURRENT MISSION

Experience something new every day, and live every day to the fullest.

ABOUT ME

My husband Feliks and I are always wanting to continue our trip across the globe. Last year, we did a road trip through 41 states of the US, a bit of Mexico, and a bit of Canada. We converted a minivan into an RV, complete with a bed, mini fridge, storage units, solar panel, two bikes, two sinks, and even a stove! After that, we traveled to 31 countries in the next five months or so. We now live in Birmingham AL.

We want to experience all of the various cultures, food, sights, and more that our country and beyond have to offer. We are now in our four months of traveling abroad to beautiful countries we haven't been to before. Our travels included Ireland, the UK, Spain, France, Germany, Austria, Turkey, Greece, Italy, southeast Asia, Australia, New Zealand and more.

We both love to meet new people, experience new things, cook, hike, and so much more. We are animal lovers and have a dog named Andi. Our next out of country experience will be to Belize for our Honeymoon in November.

PHILOSOPHY

We want to live life to the fullest. Live every day like you may not have another - have no regrets. Try new things, laugh as much as possible, and always aim for the best possible outlook on life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We have hosted at our home and surfed in various countries.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We have both hosted and surfed, and had great experiences with both! We cannot wait to meet more people who share our love to travel and experience new cultures.

Interests

Movies, traveling, food, seeing new cultures, our dog, meeting new people, and enjoying life!! There is not a ton that we don't like to do. We are both very open minded people and are not quick to judge - there is just no need.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movie fanatic. I own over 300 movies at home. My favorite genre depends on my mood, but I like pretty much anything. Not so intrigued by westerns though.

Deep appreciation for all music. Country is my least favorite. Paramore is my all-time favorite band. I used to pay guitar, piano, and sing. I still sing but have not given the guitar enough time. Would love to relearn one day.

I'm not much of a reader but am trying till get into more books. The iPad helps with this :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbed to the top of the Eagle's Nest in Germany. What a breathtaking view.

Teach, Learn, Share

We are both fun-loving people who are always interested in learning and experiencing new things. We have traveled almost every state in the US and would love to share our stories. We are in the middle now of learning and visiting other counties so we have some fun stories there as well. We love to cook so we would be happy to cook one night for a host if a kitchen is available. I am American, and my husband Feliks is Russian (born in Belarus), so we have two different perspectives to give.
