I learn languages in order to communicate with people around the world, and I'm very interested into russian and persian/tajik, especially the dialects of Samarkand and Bukhara. I found that visiting a country while learning its language is the best way travel.
I've been leaving abroad for a part of my life and I'd like to keep studying languages and get to know the people that speak them. I'm currently studying sociolinguistics focusing on Central Asian persian speaking communities in Tajikistan and Uzbekistan.

I'm also a huge fan of music, and I play the drums, it's kind of another language to learn for me, and playing in a band has been one of the coolest thing I've done. I'm also interested into film making, and editing, mostly filming my trips and sharing them :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing because I find that this is a great way to make friends around the world, with a closer look into their way of life and culture. Basically, I like to meet new people and listen to their stories !
