About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Make every day count.

ABOUT ME

Hey! :)
Resently I came to a conclusion, that my greatest passion in life most certainly is travelling. I want to see all the beautiful things and places with my own eyes, experience good things and get aquainted with different nationalities and cultures. What can be better than making friends all over the world?
I honestly think that by learning more about different cultures and ways of life, speaking different languages we grow to learn so much more about ourselves and we add little pieces to our personalities, like different bricks of different lifestyles, becoming bright, interesting and full of life.

What you may want to know about me? I make friends easily because I
like to communicate with people and I'm very cheerful and optimistic:) And I really like good stories that are worth sharing.

PHILOSOPHY

Carpe Diem!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is a great place to meet new people and find someone to hang out with while you are traveling and find out which activities are popular in the areas you are traveling to. So, it's great, really :)

Interests

I like to draw, to paint in oils, to read books and watch movies, and movies about movies, documenteries..)) I like to make hand-made things and visit museums and art-exhibitions, concerts. I like to sing caraoke but will never annoy people with that:) only in a company of good friends or people who would like to do it with me.)As to talk about sports I enjoy Yoga, skiing, and lately I'm really into argentine tango!
