CURRENT MISSION Learn more, experience more, enjoy. ABOUT ME Born and raised in Saint-Petersburg, Russia. I've travelled the world for, well, quite a while. Lived in Finland, Great Britain, Germany and France. Left my heart in Berlin :) PHILOSOPHY I am trying to be kind to everyone, no matter what their behaviour might be like. We are just humans. Also, I'm attentive to people around me - if you wanna chill and hangout, I'm keen, and if you are tired after work - I'll totally understand and leave you alone ;)
Interested in Art
Interested in Books & Literature
Fluent in English
Learning German
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE Travelled for a week in Northern Ireland and Scotland, staying at CS's coaches, it was grrrreat! Also, as I lived in France for the last semester, we travelled a lot with my flatmates, and couchsurfing gave us a chance to see France on the inside out! An incredible way to get to know people, culture and mentality.
Music, Movies, and Books
Books: Siddhartha by Hermann Hesse. Movies: Dogville, Joy, Vicky Cristina Barcelona, The Dreamers, Searching for Sugar Man. Music: Jazz! Also, Thom York, Joy Division, Alt-J, The Doors, Bob Dylan, Iggy Pop... And obviously, just like any other desperate Berlin-lover I'm definitely into techno.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Spitting into the North sea from a 160m high cliff! Watching the Northern lights from my kitchen window.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach you everything I know, which is: languages, yoga and running, marketing and entrepreneurship stuff, how to start your oun business, how to brew perfect coffee, wine for dummies, what to do when your hangover is unbearable, how to eat in order to feel like a superman/woman and lots of other fun things :D
What I Can Share With Hosts
Positive vibrations, good food and wine.
My Interests
I have several things I'm really passionate about - literature, music and cinema. Well, arts! You name it. Economics (and so many ideas included into it) is something that's really stuck with me by now, I'm trying to understand what, how and why is going on our planet. Also, psychology and philosophy. I'm always eager to talk and listen to other people! Yoga. Everything about it.
