Hey! I am an enthusiastic individual with a genuine can do attitude who doesn't shy away from anything fun and exciting that might add an extra spice to life :)

I was born in Germany (biologically Russian and Ukrainian) and raised in different parts of Europe, which includes places like Russia, different parts of the UK and Germany itself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The main reason why I am Couchsurfing is that I enjoy meeting new people. Who doesn't enjoy exchanging cool stories and meeting new people who come from all walks of life? Generally speaking, I like being around people who are authentic and don't have a problem being themselves. No matter what their interests, views, tastes etc.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have lived in Russian, at a tender and fragile age of 16, all by myself for three years. Not as amazing as hiking, bag packing and travelling the world. I would compare my stay in Russia to a Bear Grylls Ultramarathon.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can show you around the beautiful city of Cologne, we can go out for drinks, I can try to teach you some basic Russian, etc.)
