Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Hello! My name is Eva and I consider myself a citizen of the world. Born in Israel to Russian parents and having lived in California for most of my life, I have always had a curiosity about the world and an itch to go out and explore new places. I thrive when I am on the road- whether on a road trip or when I hop on a local bus in a foreign country. I love everything about seeing new places- the sites, the smells, the languages, the people. I have lived and worked in a few countries (and was lucky enough to host couchsurfers on my couch in Australia!) and am looking forward to being able to travel internationally again soon. For now, I am exploring and traveling the U.S. any chance I get!
