About Me

I'm a half-Polish, half-Russian person eager to spend a big part of her life travelling. I like reading about distant places and then visiting them to compare my vision with reality.
I'm interested in indigenous peoples around the world, Latin America and the Andean region in particular. I've graduated in Latin American Studies and Human Rights and I'm currently trying to start a career related to these areas. I love exploring weird music and dancing. Hope to meet you somewhere on the way!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far I haven't hosted anyone but would like to do it in the future. I've been hosted though and I have great memories!

I think the idea of Couchsurfing is great in its simplicity. Sharing personal experiences and interests and showing people the universal power of hospitality. A little effort can change someone's impression of a country completely.
