Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I am still looking for something new! In my childhood I used to travel a lot, now I am on my own and ready to open up the world. I actually believe, that people don't meet for no reason, so may be hosting or staying will help to make friends, or at least share the experience. Communicating with people of different cultures widens outlook, changes the perception. I want to learn and I want to teach.
Interests
Totally obsessed with cooking & baking and cats. Making collages for fun; contemporary art, bicycle rides, forest walks and camping, exploring new places, playing guitar a little bit. I love to dance and respect the partying culture. Used to write and used to do it good, though I have not been doing it for a while.

Music, Movies, and Books
I know everything about Lord Of The Rings. I absolutely love the movies, the cast is ideal. Like most of the people born in 90s, I love Harry Potter, huh.
My book choices are influenced by mood, period of life and everything, but I will always enjoy Orwell's 1984, "We" of Zamyatin, Brave New World of Huxley, as I'm really into dystopians. Also love Jerome K. Jerome, Edgar Poe, Dostoevskiy, Chernyshevskiy, Bukowski, Henry Miller, Maks Frai, etc.
Adore Tarantino's films, David Fincher, Lynch... Love Scott Pilgrim (and the comics), Detachment, Human Traffic,the Dish and the Spoon, Nymphomaniac. Hard to remember all of them.
I watch numerous series also, liked Twin Peaks, Vinyl, old X-files, Scrubs.
Into house and techno, drum-n-bass and jungle, shoegaze, punk, indie and hard rock, hip hop and what not.
