I am a traveling freelancer on my quest to find happiness.
Although this pursuit seems quite vague for now, I am enjoying every single moment of it. Turns out office-free life is full of amazing serendipity and marvelous adventure.
I enjoy sharing the moments of my journey with people I meet on the way. Looking for deep and thoughtful conversations, warm and cozy evenings, and lots of fun.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am currently exploring Turkey. It will be my greatest pleasure to experience some local color and feeI the real country beyond the touristic facade. I am quite self-sufficient in my travels, so no need to show me around (unless you want to), but it would be nice to have someone to share a cup of tea with and exchange a couple of stories.

P.S. Even though some locals know Russian, I would be happy to speak with you in English, just to have more practice for both of us.

Although I've been registered as a couch surfer for quite a while, this experience is going to be new for me, so I really hope for your support.)
I will be happy to host as many people as I can as soon as I return to Saint-Petersburg ;)

Music, Movies, and Books

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Confirmed my C2 English level. Twice.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can do all kinds of stuff with English (teach, translate and write), so I would be eager to help you improve your speaking skills and share a couple of hacks for effective learning.
I am a pretty good cook and always open to any kind of gastronomic experiment.

I would love to learn some local legends and stories. Always loved a good fairy-tale.
