My name is Ekaterina (or just Katya). I live in Sochi - the city where the Winter Olympic Games in 2014 and 2018 FIFA World Cup were held. I also lived near Baikal for a long time - it's the deepest and cleanest lake on the planet. I like travelling, walking, reading, riding a bike, taking pictures, listening to music, etc. When we meet, I'll tell about myself more and with pleasure listen to your stories!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet new people, show them my wonderful city and see their cities, too ^^
I'm always glad to communicate with interesting, kind and intelligent people, get acquainted with their culture and way of thinking.
