About Me

I think it's better to read my references to get an idea of who I am.
I've grown up and been living most of my life in Moscow so I've been to a lot of places here and walked around the city a lot. If you have any question about Moscow or Russia in general feel free to ask.
I've travelled to some European countries and I would love to see many other interesting places all around the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'd like to meet with couchsurfers to share our interests, life experiences and so on. I want to show people some places here that maybe are not too obvious to tourists. I would like the travelers to see that Russians are not glum and grumpy and our country can be interesting and welcoming. Also practicing my English would be nice :)))
I'm very interested to meet locals in the places where I travel to learn about other people's traditions and culture.

Interests

Love to read, watch films, listen to different music, meet with friends and to travel.
