CURRENT MISSION

I don't want to disappoint anyone who is reading this, but I don't have a mission.

ABOUT ME

My friends would probably say this about myself: She's hard to get to know, but once you know her she's a loyal person you can depend on, always willing to help. She needs to feel that she belongs to a group of people who appreciate her company. She definitely needs a lot of amusement and values a fine sense of humour, loves sarcasm. Frank and plain-spoken, almost blunt. Similar to a small child, she can get confused about lot of things. A bit naive. Sometimes stubborn and lazy. Too subjective. "Still waters run deep" is also quite accurate.

PHILOSOPHY

"Don't do what you wouldn't like to be done to you." To be honest, most of the time it's hard to live by this philosophy. And the simpliest, but the most truthful: "Be happy."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Just two experiences as a surfer so far. Both of them very positive.

Interests

MUSIC - mainly listening, but I've been learning to sing and play the piano for about 2-3 years. Please, don't ask me to perform, the dominating part of me is extremely shy. VARIOUS ART FORMS - I'm curious about them so if you are an expert at, let's say, the theory of architecture, I'm more than willing to listen. I love to draw. BOOKS - Who wouldn't love a good read? But I have to admit I'm probably the slowest reader under the sun, except the illiterate and children up to 8 years of age. WALKING. SWIMMING. EATING. SHISHA/TEA/COFFEE/BEER/WINE TIME (with my friends, of course). SOME ADVENTURE. ASTROLOGY.
