Hei alle sammen!

I'm Sasha and I'm from Mosow. Some years ago I left my heart in Norway and that's why I always want to come back there (and I do). Already visited Oslo, Bergen, Haugesund, Stavanger, Sandnes, Flam, Odda. Going to be back in Bergen this summer and visit Voss, Andalsnes and Alesund (and also spend some time in Uppsala and Stockholm). Already planning to go to Northern Norway next time :D Hope to visit Iceland one day.

I do photography for 9 years but now it became more hobby than profession because I found one in game dev and liked it :D

I also like metal music, tattos (one day I'll be covered by them :D), video games, "hygge" with friends.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To get to know new people, have a good time and maybe become good friends.

Interests

Photography is my passion. I love walking in the woods, sitting on the shore looking out onto the water.
I also adore metal music, video games, travelling, writing, meeting new people, nature, cats, owls.
