Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I love learning foreign languages and using them when talking to people. I also love getting to know people from other countries and learning about their culture. I spent a year in Germany, where I met lots of amazing people from all over the world, and I miss this very much.
Music, Movies, and Books
I listen to many different kinds of music, it's not easy to sum it up (http://www.last.fm/ru/user/SnowInShock). I studied foreign literature at the university and I read mostly classical authors from ancient to postmodern (https://www.goodreads.com/snowinshock). My favorite author is Irvine Welsh.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I spent a whole year in Germany working in the memorial site of the former concentration camp.
