Grew up in Siberia, Russia and moved to the U.S. about 7 years ago. I love traveling, learning about different cultures and meeting people. I always keep my mind and heart open to new ideas and experiences.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because life is a journey and we weren't meant to travel by ourselves. I love learning new things, listening to life stories and creating new ones.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like listening to Classical and Electronic music and dancing to latin, soul and reggie.
Reading is a big part of my life. Books and essays of Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Leo Tolstoy & Hermann Hesse resonate the most with me.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I came to the U.S. with a few hundred dollars in my pocket, no friends & poor English language skills and built my life here from zero.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you to dance and some Russian language
I would love to learn Spanish and how to surf.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Conversation over a glass of wine, reading in the park, trying out new restaurants, shows, theaters, concerts, museums. I am always open to try new things, visit new places, and meet people.
