Also we are going to Scotland for Christmas holidays.
And I'm planning to go to Barcelona and Amsterdam and may be Belfast for diversifying cultural background.

PHILOSOPHY

You know for understand my philosophy, you need to read so many Russian books and drink a lot of tea in the tiny Saint-Petersbourg's kitchen speaking with me and you would have to use hypnos...
But I think it's important for me - be honest to myself and be patient to others.
Keep calm and carry on.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I surfed many times and hosted...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I started "couchsurfing" in my childhood in 1995. You know, for the first time it was a simple changes before international school pupils. I went to french family and after that the french girl came to my place in Russia. So I've been in France may be 5 times after that. And I like this country and think that France gives me this "addiction for travel". So after school I searched another international exchange organization, but I was a student. and all of them had a payable membership and it was as a hotel service. But Internet made a miracle - nowadays it's free and became more and more interesting, you don't need to do something incredible for travelling, for going on bicycle to other country...then sometimes people could be hospitable without CS, Internet...as Armenia for example.)))
So you need to be hospitable...and intelligent in you decision to host any or other person.
