Hello! I'm Elizaveta, I study philosophy and literature, nice to meet you! I am cool (not only my grandma says so) but quite dangerous: you will immediately want to visit Saint Petersburg after talking to me because it is my favorite city ever and I can tell you loooots of stories about it. Well, if this happens, don't worry: I will show you the most beautiful views and places of our northern Venice.

I'll be glad to learn from you and teach you everything I know from russian swear words to the most exquisite poems :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To be honest, I am totally sure that everyone can get a 10€ hostel if they want to explore the city on their own and they just need a cheap place to sleep. For me, Couchsurfing is much more than that: it's like visiting a dear faraway friend. So I am really looking forward for spending time together, talking about stuff, dancing and drinking coffee or tea :)
