Hi! My name is Aidana, a Kazakhstani girl, studying in Turkey, and doing her Erasmus in Italy.

I am open-minded and communicative, and love to learn and explore new things. Traveling and meeting people from all over the world have taught me a lot. I enjoy listening to podcasts, learning foreign languages, and photographing. Don't be surprised if I try to understand the epistemology of new words:D Also I write a blog on Instagram about education and travel.
My hobbies since childhood are dancing and singing.

I've worked as an English and Turkish tutor, as a consulter about studying in Turkey, and as a seller-manager for an education course. Moreover, I did my internship as an assistant in the language center and in the embassy of the Republic of Kazakhstan in Turkey. These experiences improved my communicative skills and critical thinking.

If you have read my profile, please, ask me a question related to Kazakhstan.

`Now I am traveling all around Europe, and making friends from all over the world.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I am a student in the International relations department, who is interested in learning about other cultures and languages. I think, I always analyze where I would like to live and work as an ambassador of Kazakhstan:D I liked the idea of having friends all around the world. And of course, Couchsurfing would help me save money for the following trips.

Musik, Filme und Bücher

Usually, I listen to different types of music. When I am abroad mostly listen to Kazakh songs. They make me feel closer to my motherland. But my favorite song is "Take me to church". For me, it is must-sing song in karaoke. Among movies I prefer drama. My favorite, for now, is "Little women". Unfortunately, I do not have enough time for reading books as before. Nevertheless, I listen to psychological audiobooks such as You are a Badass' by Jin Sincero.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

I surprised my friend by coming to her birthday. We have not seen each other for about a year. She lives in the Southern city of my country, while I live in the North. My way to a new city (where I have never been before) took me 34 hours by train. Finally, I entered her house at 00.00 on her birthday. Her emotions, shock, and happiness are worth it.

I hosted a stranger from a train, a girl who had no place to stay for several days. We had a fun time together.
