PLEASE NOTE THAT I AM CURRENTLY NOT ACCEPTING GUESTS BECAUSE OF THE CORONA OUTBREAK.

I am originally from Russia, have lived in the states for most of my life and am now moving to London! I work at Google and I help businesses that advertise with Google improve their mobile website and earn more customers. In my free time I like to cook, outdoors sports, and meeting new people. I also love to travel. I have been to 44 countries and now that I'm based out of Europe, my goal is to visit 40 new countries within 2 years (I'm half way there)!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to travel and don't really like the superficial ambiance of hotels and resorts. I'd much rather stay with locals and learn about the style of living in whichever part of the world I happen to be in.

We have a similar program to couchsurfing at Google, and I've met so many amazing people using it and sharing my home. However, not every place I travel to has a Google office, so I'm branching out! Either way, such communities are super cool and I love meeting new people through them.
