CURRENT MISSION

Learn Russian, discover hidden gems in Saint Petersburg!

ABOUT ME

I am a graduate student from Seattle, studying Russian and Public Policy. I'm here for the summer to learn Russia. My level is intermediate, and I want more than anything else to meet and have fun with local Russians. I really love exploring nature, swimming, and discovering new, unknown bars, clubs, and scenic places. If anyone wants to go on some adventures with me, please let me know!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am currently being housed by a Russian family and so I am not able to host anyone, unfortunately. However, I am excited to get out and discover this wonderful town, meet Russians, and improve my Russian skills! I especially love the outdoors, cooking, and traveling to special, not-well-known places.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted people before, especially when I lived in Spain. I also spent a week with a member in London. Just today I met a wonderful girl, Katya, and we went to the beach with some other Russian students.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was awoken by my host recently, dragged down to our Russian neighbor's apartment, shown his large collection of enormous guns, and then fed elk meat. Only in Russia!!!
