I am very enthusiastic. I easily can get caffeine and ice-cream shocks. I am passionate about things but I have no idea how to fill the section "About me" because about me is always different. It reshapes, changes directions.One thing about me is that I have been vegetarian for 5 years. That is pretty stable!
Another thing is that I am a passionate photographer. I am always learning and I am always looking for faces to capture. Portrait is my favorite.

ABOUT STAYING IN MY PLACE:
Staying in my place I would recommend more as an option when you have just nowhere to stay. YOU SHOULD HAVE SLEEPING BAG. Why? Now I am renting a small studio in the student accomodation. I would call it room actually, because it is an actual room hahah:) So, in this room I have an en-suite bathroom and place for cooking, but I have just one bed, and unfortunately it's all I can suggest today. So, I have nice bed and nice floor and if you have sleeping bag you are more then welcome to share my space with me. May be I will have some money soon to buy a matras, but so far my space seems like an emergency hahah. Anyway, it's small but cozy. It is located no very-very central but still pretty central, 10-15 minutes walk from the Princess Street. I usually walk to the George Square where my university located and it takes me half an hour. So yeah, think about it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It makes me fresh... People that couchsurf are the people I would love to keep in touch with - they are people that travel and if they do travelling, they understand a bit more. And they touch deeper the surface of what it is to be a human being.

Music, Movies, and Books

Let the book be just a collection of Sergei Yesenin´s poems, especially "Москва Кабацкая" series, as I fell in love with it few years ago and so far I have been coming back and referring to this series all over again. But otherwise I have to admit that my favorite book is the one I read at the moment as my memory is so short. So, let it be just any kind of a nice book:)
Movie is different. "Ameli" would be the favorite one. Music is just a loooot to say and at the end I listen to any kind of music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

For 2 years I have been living with 200 people from 63 countries in a brand new crazy experiment, called United World College. That's an amazing thing I have done, which summarize many different aspects:
1) My learning how to use camera and falling in love with photography. You can check my Instagram profile here: https://www.instagram.com/elenavasilevaphoto/
2) Taking the course of Visual Arts in college;
3) Just wandering around wherever I could reach and speaking with people, finding connections with the environment.
