Hey there, I am Liza, from Moscow, Russia originally, living in EU since 2024
I am an architect- city-planner and student on Erasmus mundus program of Redesigning of the post-industrial city. Now I'm having an internship in Amsterdam and writing a master thesis in Rotterdam

Also I am a crazy traveler. I just can't sit on the couch more then 1 week, my passion in exploring new places and cultures. I'm couchsurfing since 2021 after COVID , when I started travelling solo with budget friendly conditions
CS gave me the possibility to visit many countries in Europe and Asia and meet amazing people, some of them became friends already 😊

In my opinion couchsurfing and hitchhiking is perfect combination for perceiving new countries and cultures, I study cultures through them and understanding better the environment 🪟✨

I am crazy about modern architecture, art and am interested in the cultures of different countries and peoples. In my free time (if this happens (wow!)) I read and listen to books, walk a lot, cook goodies, go to exhibitions, draw

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe that it is people who make the world so beautiful in the places where they live, in humanity and friendship of peoples and mutual support no matter what) As a student this time I want to try to explore the world from the inside - through the inhabitants of cities (besides, I study at the Department of Urban Planning)
