Overview
About Me
My favorite quote is
"There are two types of tragedies in life. One is not getting what you want, the other is getting it" (G.B.Shaw)
I have graduated from the university this year and now I work in DHL, the world's most international company, as customer advisor in Moscow, travel only on my vacations.
I CAN HOST ONLY IN SUMMERTIME. Because I live with my family, and in summer they always move to our countryhouse. But I have so busy schedule, so write me in advance.
I HAVE A BOYFRIEND. So please don't write me if you just liked my photos.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I think that truly valuable things can't really be bought for money. People who are searching for hosts there have to be awesome and interesting for others. Therefore traveling in this way motivates couchsurfers to be charismatic, it inspires them to seek for their strenghts and good features, and this is what I like about this platform. I want to stay hip!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
There were so many breathtaking moments in my life - when I've tried rafting, paraglider, or riding having hooked on the back of electric train...
Or several times when I stayed in unfamiliar cities for couple of days without any money and had to just survive, living like a homeless...
Or every time I perform something on stage (dance or having speech)
But I think that the most amazing things are relationships between people and memories which connect them. The things I've done which were really amazing are my feelings towards people whom I love.
Teach, Learn, Share
I would prefer to host people who are native speakers of English because I want to improve my English :)
What I Can Share with Hosts
