CURRENT MISSION
I am a postdoctoral researcher - visiting scholar at UW-Madison.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I participated to CS after meeting a surfer. She suggested me this site thankfully and I am a member for a quite long time..

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted many times, especially during my BA study. My guests varied from Japan to Alaska but most of them were from Russia.

Interests

I am quite interested in "life"!
Meeting new people, visiting new places, learning about new culteres- whatever is diffferent for me, I do like it. I am interested in local musics.
As Conficuse says, 'if you want to learn deeply about a region you are visiting, you should listen to its music then you can understand the spirit and emotions of this place.'

I do my best to focus on the present as I agree with the saying that "If you are depressed, you are living in the past. If you are anxious, you are living in the future. If you are at peace, you are living in the present."

Music, Movies, and Books

Shameless (US) and Vikings and Game of Thrones are the ones that I followed weekly. I like house music, however, I listen to ethnic pieces often as well.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I let one octopus touch my arm while scuba diving..

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach how to play table tennis.

What I Can Share with Hosts

As a guest, I’m respectful of house rules and easily adapt to my host’s daily routines—whether it’s early mornings or late evenings. I’m clean, tidy, and always aim to make things comfortable for everyone. I enjoy sharing stories from my travels and the interesting people I’ve met along the way. I’m warm-hearted and full of energy, and I’d love to grab a beer or a glass of wine together if you're up for it—it’s always nice to connect over good conversation.
