I am in France before 15.07.2016. Then I will spend summer in Nizhniy Nogrorod. Can host in this city.

This will be my second large independent travel (the first was in 2015 in the UK and Ireland). I will come to all the Euro 2016 days and will be traveling to France for over a month.

I do not want to stay in hotels and hostels, because I want to know the real life and meet local people. In any case, I take a sleeping bag:)

I take with me an action-camera and I will make a film about my Euro 2016 trip. And you can become one of the heroes of my film)

I am working on three jobs at one time. I am a journalist on TV, marketer in consulting company and a steward at the football stadium (Spartak is the most popular club in Russia). I want to feel the atmosphere of the big football festival, visit as many games, play football (take beads with me) and have great fun.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I do not like «sterile tourism» (when you visit only obvious tourist plases and did not communicate with the locals. I want to open a real France and meet a lot of new friends, who later can come to me in Moscow and Nizhny Novgorod.

In France I will be for over a month. During this time, I want to visit the most famous cities and places.
