Hi everyone!

I'm born and raised Russian girl, who grew up in a city on Chinese border. I'm a law student (doesn't mean i'm boring:) in one of the best universities in Russia. Back in highschool I've spent a year in US, living in host family and attending typical school in Ohio.
I didn't do a lot of traveling in the past (exept for China, i've been there about a dozen times), but isn't now a perfect time to begin?
So! This March me and 3 of my friends are taking a small eurotrip!
We start in Riga, then spent 1 day in Cologne and go to Amsterdam for 4 days. On our way back we are also planning on hitting Berlin as well and stay there for 1 day.
So we are looking for crazy people who can host 4 girls for one night in Cologne (4 of March), for 3 nights in Amsterdam (5-8 of March), and for 1 night in Berlin (9 of March).

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I got my profile a while ago, but for some reason hesitated to use it till now. But we want to make this trip something special and not just sightseeing, but actually get to know the places we visit and people who live there.

音乐、电影和书籍

Movies have a special place in my heart. I love going to the cinema alone, with a date, with a big company, love watching movies at home too. I like to watch smth new, but there are some movies i've watched up to 20 times.
Here are some of my favourites: Big Fish, Jersey girl, The Prestige, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, The Great Gatsby, 500 Days of Summer, Bicentennial Man, The Brothers Grimm, The Grand Budapest Hotel, American Beauty, Only Lovers Left Alive, EuroTrip, Wuthering Heights, The Painted Veil, Gone with the Wind, Love Actually, The Holiday, Harry Potter and The Lord of the Rings

About the reading thing....
I study law, so i have to read A LOT. But stuff i read for school is mostly boring laws, some philosophy and history from time to time.
But in my spare time (as i am a very dreamy and romantic girl) i enjoy the company of Scarlett O'Hara, Elizabeth Bennet and Cathy Earnshaw...well, to be honest, i enjoy the company of male characters even more:)
I'm also fond of Russian literature modern and classic.
When i'm reading my attention is mostly drawn to the atmosphere created in the book (streets, food, dresses, people's everyday problems etc), it amuses me more than philosophical questions offered us by the author. But again, it depends on the mood.

music
I don't have favourite genres in music, I evenly like Johannes Brahms and Thom Yorke
