Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I totally relate to the ideas of the community and I hope to find new friends and keep in touch with my guests from different countries here. I consider "friendship" to be the key concept of couchsurfing. I hope you will keep it in mind once you decide to text me.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've hosted a lot of people since the day I registered there, but I had to stop using couchsurfing because of COVID-19. Missed you, guys! Back on track, finally :-)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

There are a lot actually :) It's difficult to focus on the most distinguished one... Let it be the fact that I worked in the theatre for 2 years as a costumier.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am fluent in English and I am already curious about your life.
It would be exciting to take you for a walk and explore the city as well as to cook something together.
My guests usually share their recipes with me and I keep them in my cooking book.

What I Can Share with Hosts

If you find it possible to host me I can bring you something special from Russia.
I respect people who are kind and honest and always try to help them.
I am an easy-going person and can support your ideas, but I am independent enough to spend time on my own.

Countries I’ve Visited

Countries I’ve Lived In
