HOME: Russian Homestays

Homestays in Russia and Ukraine

 

Ever consider a homestay with a Russian or Ukrainian family?

 

Russian homestays not only provide an affordable alternative to expensive accommodations like hotels and apartments, they alsohomestay in Russia provide a unique insight into the lives and culture of local people.

 

Where does one find a suitable homestay and what are the costs?

 

There are two Russian homestay options. The first one is to utilize the phenomenon that is changing the travel industry.

  1. Free accommodations on a hospitality homestay network
  2. The second is the more traditional pay for stay homestay

Where do the two differ and which is better? In many ways they are quite similar. Option one is cheaper (obviously), but it's also short term. Option two requires you to pay, but often comes with meals, gives you more privacy (your own room) and allows you to stay long term if you are overseas for study or work.

 

 

Hospitality Exchange Homestay Networks

 

We've listed three of the most popular hospitality exchange sites below. Just by browsing these three sites, you'll be able to find free homestay accommodations in thousands of welcoming homes throughout Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Moldova, Kazakhstan, Latvia, etc.

 

Couchsurfing homestays

CouchSurfing

A worldwide network for making connections between travelers and the local communities they visit. When we last checked, there were almost 4000 Russians and roughly 700 Ukrainians who were offering their homes to foreign visitors.

 

The Hospitality Club homestays

The Hospitality Club

Their aim is to bring people together - hosts and guests, travelers and locals. Nice feature about the site is the breakdown into regions and cities within Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, etc., so you can quickly find a homestay in the area you will be traveling to.

 

GlobalFreeloaders homestays

GlobalFreeloaders

GlobalFreeloaders.com is an online community, bringing people together to offer you free accommodation all over the world. Although they have a smaller membership than the first two sites, there is still quite a comprehensive database of members from Russia, Ukraine and across Eastern Europe.

 

 

Pay for Stay Russian Homestays

 

We will be working to compile a network of homestays in the future.

 

For now you can still search for accommodations from the list of cities.
