Hello! My name is Nata. I was born in Russia in Perm, in the region close to the Urals where rivers meet mountains. Now I live in Saint-Petersburg. Recently I worked with chinese tea and as a bartender.
I'm new to Couchsurfing. I haven't traveled much Europe. I've seen more of Brazil. Currently I'm traveling Portugal with my friend Tania.
I'm really interested in cultural exchange with local people. Flexible and easygoing. I speak English and Brazilian Portuguese.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Several years ago we were travelling with my friend in Brazil. We were going to see the concert of Lenine in Garanhuns. It is a small town in Pernambuco. All the hostels were full and my friend found a host through Couchsurfing. Ricardo, the host, introduced us to his friends and family. We've spent three wonderful days there in his house. I couldn't ever imagined such a hospitality. This experience was very enriching. We are still in contact with Ricardo. That is how I have found out that Couchsurfing is the best way to make friends all over the world.

Interests

I am really fond of walking and exploring the city. I can walk throughout the day admiring the architecture.
It's nice to finish the day in a bar chatting in good company :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can make myself useful in the kitchen: help to make dinner or teach you how to cook some dishes from Russian cuisine, borsh, for example ;) I certainly would learn how to cook smth from your cuisine with great pleasure.

Sure, I would gladly suggest my company in most of the activities, share opinions and cultural experience.

When you decide to come to Russia I will be a guide for you and will make my best to find you a place to stay.
