Miss Sunshine, people call me. However, I am not proud of it because to me it's associated with those shiny happy people silly smiling around. Ilys, I call myself. It stands for I Love Your Souls which means I love getting to know people. Because every one of us is a reflection of the Universe in its unique creativity.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Traveling means opening my eyes and heart for diversity, for discomfort, for getting to know myself better. The best way how I can meet this criteria is to meet with locals and face unknown situations. What I love about traveling is not visiting the top 10 highlights but seeing the places that someone else love seeing for a reason. And it's my pleasure if someone let me to share it with him/her.

Music, Movies, and Books

My heart beats in rythm of 80's but my forever beloved band is Sigur Ros!
I like documentary movies reflecting life and atmosphere of specific moment.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I built an igloo and slept in it in -25 'C. My hands almost froze out but that experience was amazing!

Teach, Learn, Share

Although I am a super social person, as I grow older I appreciate the sound of silence. I think this is what I am trying to learn now, what life teaches me and it is a beautiful thing to be shared. Because in silence you can hear everything important.
