CURRENT MISSION - Keep myself going!

ABOUT ME - I'm a small red-haired girl often compared to Little My (a Moomin character) who doesn't only share her tininess and hair colour with me but also her curiosity, stubbornness and humour. I have a degree in Psychology and also studied art, currently going through an existentialist crisis, trying to figure out what I really want from life. Apart from that, I spend my time bouldering, doing art projects and acroyoga.

PHILOSOPHY - "They say that dreams are only real as long as they last. Couldn't you say the same thing about life?" - Waking Life, 2001
"Sometimes I try to escape my love for ice cream but then I realise: I can't run away from something that's so deep-rooted in me." - Me, 2014

NOTEWORTHY - 🐝 I enjoy reading messages that show you’ve read at least a small fragment of my profile! 🐝

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

It allows you to see the city you're visiting through the eyes of a local and the city you live in through the eyes of a traveler.

兴趣

I adore all kind of art forms from circus, theatre and music to street art. My hobbies include drawing, gymnastics, long walks, going to flea markets, singing, circus, reading, and making crafts & to-do lists. I also love listening, whether it's talking (people around me, ted talks, lectures etc), music or just surrounding sounds. Long walks and spontaneous adventures.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

On really romantic evenings of self, I go salsa dancing with my confusion.

教，学，和分享

In case you don't know how to ride an unicycle (even if you have a unicycle) I'd be more than happy to teach you. In case you don't know how to handstand (even if you have two hands) I'd be happy to teach that as well.

I want to learn anything and everything; whether it's a new language, instrument or how to perfect juggling with clementines (or with work, hobbies, social life and sleep).

Edit 2017: I've almost perfected the skill of juggling with clementines! I'm also trying to push the boundaries of my comfort zone and I feel like it would be easier with a friend (or a competitor) so if you want to go and sing karaoke or talk to strangers around the city - let's do it together! Edit 2025: I need to relearn the juggling!
