Hey,
I am originally from Perm (Russia) but I came to Saint Petersburg to study Scandinavian languages and culture. Right now I'm an exchange student in Bergen, Norway!

I enjoy:
-travelling and taking pictures of the beautiful places I see
-riding my penny board in the summertime :)
-playing ukulele and guitar (I have a classical one and I mostly play my favourite songs without knowing the musical notation system coz that's how you become a true rockstar)
-sending and receiving paper letters and postcards
-collecting stamps
-swimming
-doing yoga
-reading books
-watching movies and tv-series, especially with my friends

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I love travelling and I think getting to know the locals is way better than living in a boring hotel!

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to different bands depending on my mood. Arctic Monkeys used to be my favourite band for a long time and I was lucky enough to see them play live. :)
P.S. (I listen to American hip-hop in secret because my friends think it's weird).

My favourite movies are Dead Poets Society, Midnight in Paris, I Am Sam, En man som heter Ove, and Frances Ha.

I like many books but the only book I've ever wanted to reread is 'A Farewell to Arms' by Ernest Hemingway.
