CURRENT MISSION

Becoming a freelance translator

ABOUT ME

I am a language learner and lover, this is my way to experience the world. Nevertheless, I am a woman of few words. I prefer to listen to other people talking about their experiences, their trips and their lives.
I'm a coffee and tea addict, I love to cook vegetables (I'm pretty good at it) and to eat meat prepared by others (but I'm trying to become a vegetarian).
I'm easy-going but I don't take people's hospitality for granted, and I try to do my best to be a good guest.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm completely new to the whole CS experience, so this section will be completed later :)

Interests

I love books, music, cats, gorgeous cities. I practice yoga and I'm learning tailoring. I'm also attending a massage course. I collect minerals.
I enjoy cooking vegetables and cereals (I know they're vegetables too) and eating them.
I love singing and in my free time I'm trying to learn to play a left-hand guitar :)
