Join me to meet the NY in the downtown, parting the shows, concerts, and other gatherings, having fun, drinking wine.

Hello, friends!
I'm Nikita from Saint-Petersburg ,and i'm 27.
I'm not a serious traveller, i just want to see, what is going to happen to me if I come to another side of the world to taste new feelings.

I'm applying for a Ph.D., I also know the language of music and different kinds of it. I know that music is able to transform space and it allows you to see through time, especially when you play or dance) There are really things to love in it, like hip-hop or punk-rock, russian and german classics, indian ragas and arabic oud music... So i do, and I can talk about it for ages)

Also i can tell you much about my wonderful contradictional country and share precious experiences like philosophical, business or water tripping in the North.)

Anyway it's going to be an unbelievable journey. And you can join me somehow.

Also we can spend perfect moments walking, admiring nature, architecture and views on what this world is about, having fun and whatever. I'm open to any motion.)

I can play beautiful songs, if there is a guitar around)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It' s always nice to meet new friends!

I love travelling, but all of the wonderful places I visited before are too close to my city of classical music, cathedrals and museums, covered by endless windy fog. And they have the same specific spirit.

Now I feel the need for something absolutely different - culture, sky, background of the stories that people tell, another flavours in the air.

I'm really interested in the source of the differences I'm going to see: in how people chill, how they move eyes, what kind of music they play, what is their philosophy.

And I have interesting backgrownd to tell about. )
