We're positive, cosmopolitan couple, communicative and easy-going. We like art and do it. Both non smoking.
I (Nadya) work with my husband and life partner Sasha Svirsky, he is an artist and makes independent animation films and I help him with communications and assistance. We always travel together. Sometimes we travel to animation and shortfilm festivals around the world.
We're responsible persons thinking about people around.
We live in Moscow and I will be really glad to make an excursion around Moscow with an emphasis on hystory, architecture and art.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We like the combining of two ideas: the practical one of a shared economy and the spiritual second of a common world, where people are friendly and open minded despite of a nationality, a policy or a culture.
And the thing is when you explore a city like a tourist it's absolutely different impressions then if it's shown you by locals. In this way you can feel another culture, life rythm, little true things which you never will see, if you just tourist.
On the other hand when you show your city to stranger, you see your native city in other perspective. It's great experience for both.
