About Me

Hi, guys!
We are a couple - Michael and Elly. We used to hitch-hike a lot when we were younger, and now we run our own business (its a small shop with festival cloth), and don't have a chance to travel as much as we did it before.

We are almost all summer stay in Moscow.
Feel free to write us - whatever, if you need a host, or a company for walk around the city, or just an advice...

Both of us are kind of fluent in English, but we are always happy to practise more... and just to have a fun with you, guys!

Ademas, ahora ambos estudiamos español y querríamos practicar con hablantes nativos. Por eso, hispanohablantes bienvenidos ante todo! :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Sometimes I'm thinking: why people travelling? Isn't your oun apartment more cozy, than this strange Far-Far-Away-Places? But then I wake up somewhere in Hymalaya mountains, or listen adventure-stories in small cafe in Damascus, or cross Sahara desert by hitch-hiking, and realize: yes. I understand, why I'm travelling. In my home I could't get this special spirit of adventures, freedom, and so great energy of creation. Or, actually, I think i can: when i meet with another travellers at my home city.
