Well... It's hard for me to describe myself because this is some kind of self advertisment and I'm quite bad in that.
I consider myself a little shy and introverted yet most of my friends think I'm very social. Probably the truth is something in between. I love reading books, watching movies, riding bicycle, lilstening and playing music and traveling, of course. Last two years great: I travelled a lot and visited places I was only dreaming about and met many great people. I made a solo trip on my bike through western Ukraine, visited Crimea just few weeks before it was annexed by Russia, spent amazing week in San Diego California, and did two road trips in USA - from New York to Texas, and from Texas to Florida and back.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

It's a pity but I never could find enough courage in me to ask somebody to host me but I will ))
I think CS is probably one of the best ways to travel because meeeting real people with real lives and stories, finding new friends, that's what helps to feel the spirit of places you visit and truly understand them.

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

I'm a big book nerd. I've read my home library several times before I turned 16. I love Russian and American classic literature, I love science fiction, I really like contemporary literature and completely disagree with people who think that best books have been already written. My favorites are Dostoevsky, Hemingway, Azimov, Cortasar, Pelevin...
Movies? Oh yes. IMDB top 200 is great and absolutely must see if you are movies fan. I also like Scandinavian cinema, mostly modern, no offence Bergman. Russian cinema grew up lately and they have really good, desperate movies.
My music interest are almost everything. Classical music, ethnic, jazz, brit-pop, electronic dance music, drum'n'bass, dubstep (but not that agressive chainsaw pig raping sound), ragga jungle, reggae, IDM.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

I'm proud of of my solo trip in West Ukraine and Ukrainian Carpathian Mountains on my bike. And rope jumping from the roof of the building(it was 87 meter high) was really scary and awesome.
