Armenian who was born in Koenigsberg (yes, that enclave of Russia in the middle of Europe by the Baltic sea) and lived, studied, volunteered, worked in 8 other countries (Germany, Lithuania, France, USA, Hungary, Turkey, Armenia, UK) as I am curious and continuously explore our world and people of various (diverse and yet, I believe, similar) cultures and values. Currently based in Budapest, Hungary.

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?
