I'm really interested in Russian national culture, so every summer I used to visit different Russian villages with the research expedition.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Visiting different countries I always was interested not only in history, culture, architecture but in people. I think you'll never know the country until you know its people. So couch is necessary if you really want to feel the country.
