Hey there! I’m a student of Russian philology who seems to have accidentally fallen in love with Eastern Europe and beyond. I’ve cruised the streets of Vietnam on a scooter, seen my fair share of pho, and even spent a month volunteering in Ukraine. Let’s just say I’m always up for an adventure…even if my Russian grammar skills are better than my motorbike skills.

Back home, you’ll usually find me buried in books, watching films, or tracing my finger across a map to plan my next big (or imaginary) adventure. These days, life (and school) has kept me closer to home, so I’m not traveling as much as I’d like. That said, I’m always happy to share stories, help fellow travelers, and hear what adventures you’ve been on lately.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I may not be able to roam as much at the moment, but I love meeting travelers and sharing experiences. Whether it’s swapping travel tips over coffee, helping with language practice, or trading stories from the road, I’m all in.
