Red Bench is the name of our family guest-house near Novosibirsk, in the village called Zavyalovo. It is a typical russian village where we live in harmony with nature. If you want to experience simple way of life, being far from big city system, pollution and noise, if you want to practice yoga or simply meditate on the point, if you want to know enigmatic russian soul or meet true siberians – our place is a good place for you
We offer accomodation (shared) from May till October in original mongolian yurt with a stove. Banja for washing. Vegetarian home-made feeding.

We invite all members of CS community to visit our place if you are near Novosibirsk (but not more than 3 nights). Send request to https://www.couchsurfing.com/users/2004729608

Meet people from all over the world in a laid-back atmosphere!

Please, call + 7 913 956 0680 Alya or e-mail redbenchsiberia@gmail.com us if you have any questions about visiting.

Attention! We have free language school for local kids. We need equipment (cards, postcards, games in English). We also collect flags from different countries. We appreciate if you bring it.
