Hey! I’m an international student, a Year of Exchange program finalist, currently studying in Valdosta State University, GA. I’m from Russia and i’m eager to share my culture and to know more about American culture. I usually travel with my friend Kristina, who is also from Russia and from the same program.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because it’s a way of meeting new people, exploring big and diverse country, and of course for me as a student it’s an opportunity to save money.

Interests

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite book is “The Secret History” by Donna Tartt.
As for music, I’m into The Weeknd, Halsey, Labrinth, Arctic Monkeys and many more, plus Russian singers.
I’m big on sitcoms such as The Office, How I Met Your Mother, Friends and Brooklyn 99.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Being here is an amazing thing for me because it’s my first time living in a foreign country (second time abroad in general) and it’d been my dream for years, which came to life because I won a scholarship. So, I’m really proud of myself and beyond excited about this whole experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to practice my English and Spanish.
My friends say that i’m good at teaching ice skating and ping pong (i hope so 🤣)
