About Me

Hi!╰(▔∀▔)╯I'm a curious and amiable student. My first Couchsurfing trip has changed my worldview absolutely and I cannot wait for new unforgettable experience. I have a lot of interests in all spheres of life: Education, Sport, Culture etc. Therefore I could make up a nice company and become a good friend of you) I think, I can even say that I am polite, responsive, open-minded, easygoing and possess other important qualities to get really pleasant acquaintance and will try to do my best to make the time spent together enjoyable!٩(◕‿◕)۶
I got used to plan all my activity and won't bother in case you are busy, but if you have any idea I'll gladly join you.
I would definitely be a host and hopefully look for this opportunity in future, but, unfortunately, I live in the dormitory where it is forbidden to pass those who don't live there.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

In the summer of 2019 I was suddenly striken by the idea of traveling. I have just realized that it is the time to see the world, because only now I am young, strong, enthusiastic and ready for adventures and difficulties at the same time. I want to do as much as I can afford me being just a student. That is why I see an enormous amount of opportunities in joining Couchsurfing. I consider it is a wonderful platform way not only to find the place to spend a couple of nights in the place you visit, but also to get interesting acquaintances and new friends, to exchange knowledge and experience, to know more about another culture. This, I suppose, really worthy invention of our century that helps to make the world better together.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Many years ago I participated in the chess tournament, where after each your move there adds 15 seconds to your time, therefore it is considered impossible to lose the game in time... guess how I lost)))
One more to show I'm not so boring.
Once I created the whole quest for my best friend on her birthday in the Sherlock Holmes' style (she likes it very much). I planned everything: phrases to say while getting from one venue to another, riddles, costumes, characters (other friends and strangers also), various stations throughout the city, route. Now she considers it to be one of the best days of her life.

Teach, Learn, Share

I will share all of my knowledge with great pleasure, any themes, whatever you want. I am passionate to many fields, so can also shower you with questions. Can tell you a lot from russian history and culture, teach you to play some cool songs on guitar, some russian language, to draw Simon's cat))

Smile, good mood, thoughts, deep and warm conversations, skills, knowledge and the best time of my life)
