I am a translator at VKontakte and have been living in St. Petersburg for about 3 years. I absolutely love living here and find every day to have its own adventure. I love meeting new people, interacting and experiencing different cultures and it is one of my goals to travel as much around Russia and the surrounding countries as possible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to travel, and when I have a settled place, I love to help those who travel as well. I have had friends who have been hosts and I have met amazing people through those friends, and once I have a place of my own, I figure that I could provide the same support for fellow travelers.

Interests

I'm a violinist and enjoy flow art. I spin fire poi.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: All sorts, but I particularly like techno and house, more so on the former. But as a musician, I have played piano for churches, violin for weddings and used to play in both a bluegrass and celtic band... So its all over the place.

Movies: I like psychological thrillers generally. Also period dramas. I watch a lot of different TV shows, and my favorite is probably the Americans.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've discovered a cave. Standing someplace that no man has ever stood before is on the top most amazing things I have done.
