Hi everyone! My name is Ann, I've been living on my own here in Saint Petersburg since 2012 when I had finally moved into this fascinating city from the south of Russia. I am fond of unexpected travelling, little adventures, meeting new people, visiting new places, getting fresh impressions and practicing my English :)

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

In 2015 I decided to discover Europe so I would like to make friends and acquaintances from all over it. I firmly beleive that it is better to see a place through the eyes of its inhabitants ;)

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

There was definitely more than one :) Flew on a flex-wing trike, watched the Scarlet Sails celebration from a roof, personally got Dero's and Arbenina's autographs at their concerts, made tattoos, took a shower under 90 m waterfall, walked on ice of the frozen gulf, danced under the pouring rain in Gorky Park, rode a horse through the winter forest, swam with a dolphin, pet a tiger, a lionet and a bear cub, suddenly went on a two-week's cruise up and down the Volga River, explored Karakol lakes on foot (and hardly survived), "swinged over the edge" in Amsterdam in 100m above the ground... so many stories)))
