About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel where I can))

ABOUT ME

I'm 27 years old and love going everywhere and doing everything. I am American, but currently living and working in Moscow. I love traveling, especially in Russia - meeting people is the best part of it all! I also love participating in new traditions: I already love the Russian banya and this year I jumped in a hole in the ice to celebrate Kreshenie! I love to do anything adventurous or spontaneous and I love trying new things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

So far just a surfer, but hope to host when I can. Maybe this summer in Moscow!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfing is an awesome way to meet people that both know the city and are genuinely friendly. That's the best part of it! I've surfed a handful of times, but haven't had the chance to host yet - I'm always living in a different place and haven't had the opportunity yet.

Interests

I love all kinds of sports, traveling, learning, playing the guitar, riding motorcycles, and anything and everything!

  • marathon
  • motorcycles
  • traveling
  • socializing
  • guitar
  • skateboarding
  • sports

Music, Movies, and Books

I love listening to music from Russian artists. It's a great way to learn Russian and know more about the culture. If you have any favorite music please share!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I ran a marathon two years after breaking my right leg on a motorcycle and three years after breaking my left leg on a skateboard. And I've ridden the trans-siberian! But that's another kind of marathon...

Teach, Learn, Share

I can play guitar and can offer advice on traveling in Russia... maybe this will be helpful to you!
