Hello) My name is Dasha. I'm a graduate student at Florida International University in Miami, FL.

My major is International and Intercultural Education, and I'm currently launching a start-up platform that will help international students with the admission process to their dream Universities abroad. This year I received a scholarship and looking forward to traveling around the US!

In my spare time, I play musical instruments: violin, piano, and drums. I also like reading classic literature and doing winter sports, like snowboarding and skiing. I'm also a huge fan of Formula 1.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe that the world is a book, and those who do not travel, read only a page
