About Me

Well, I will just write down my ordinary biography in there.
I was born in Prokopievsk, a small mining town deep in Siberia. My childhood was pretty cool, frankly, we didn't have any technologies or modern devices, so my friends and I spent all our freetime communicating with each other in life, playing with ball, riding bycycles and being in the fresh air all days long.
When I was in highschool there came the mighty Internet. I began to play on-line games, see my friends to a lesser degree. Anyway, I managed to get the maximum-rate certificate and make a success in math and Russian language.
Then I arrived to Saint Petersburg and started to get my first education in Saint Petersburg polytechnical University, electrical engineering specialty. There I've met my husband and there we are living in dorm now.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think couchsurfing is a very budding transaction, furthermore, it's a very good-looking way of life. Perhaps, I don't have enough experience in this sphere, but it seems to me that traveling around the world, meeting new people, maybe making new friends, talking about different cultures, countries and visiting local attractions isn't a bad idea! Moreover, it's an effective way to get rid of the loneliness, the boredom and, what's not less important, expensive hotels in almost every place where they are.

Interests

Reading and writing. Travelling! I adore to go on some excursions, visit remarkable places, spend my time joyfully and usefully. Besides, I'm interested in english language.

Music, Movies, and Books

I prefer classical ones.
Anyway, it's amazing to listen to some music for dancing to or having an inspiration from. For instance, my favorite bands are Depeche Mode, The Doors, Queen, Scorpions, Elton John, etc... It's difficult to stop there :)
What's about my shelf of books, well, it contains such authors as Guy de Maupassant, Friedrich Nietzsche, Ф. М. Достоевский, М. А. Булгаков, А. С.Пушкин, Максим Горький, Walter Scott, Mario Puzo... oh, I shouldn't set all this list there, I suppose...
And movies. I do love movies! Best of all I like "The Godfather", "Pearl Harbor", "Intouchables", "Schindler's List", "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest", "Le professionnel", "Scarface", "The Silence of the Lambs" and... and many others!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It's supposed to be kinda long story. Maybe I should tell it in person to my future host or couchsurfer, shouldn't I? If he or she is interested in it, sure :)

Teach, Learn, Share

Teaching.
I feel like I'm able to teach russian language not only the foreigners, but even some native speakers. I also can teach you how to cook or how to solve rebuses or some tricky riddles, if you want it.
Learning.
I want to learn almost everything, so it'll be no problem to find something interesting for me :)
Sharing.
I can share my food with you. Or my wisdom of 21-years-old girl. What's else? If you're a host, it'll be my finest mood or impressions about new place. If you're a couchsurfer, I can show you a city and all local attractions.

What I Can Share with Hosts

As I've just said, my finest mood or impressions about new places :)

Countries I’ve Visited

Egypt, Thailand, Turkey
