ABOUT ME

From the Little-Prince perspective, one of the important facts about me is that I love the blue-sky color and I love Disney movies; I adore their soundtracks.
I am sociable (an extroverted introvert, to be more precise), very curious and very eager to learn about life; supportive, but not bothering if somebody needs time alone.
I love mountains and hiking, water and swimming, .

From the adult perspective, I am an EFL teacher, currently upgrading my knowledge with a Master's program at NAU in Flagstaff, AZ.

PHILOSOPHY

"Don't jump to conclusions" is my philosophy, as well as "Look for the best in every situation"
I know that I know little and I am ready to be amazed over and over again!

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Travelling is a way of learning. Learning from local people about their place and their lifestyle is the most authentic way to do that. And travelling does not have to be expensive. That is why I am on Couchsurfing: it lets those things happen.

Interesses

I am a member of Toastmasters where we practice public speaking. I love it!
I like being in/with/surrounded by nature, so hiking, walking, swimming - they all show me different sides of the nature.
Being a curious person, I like interacting, watching documentaries, and discovering new places.
And oh, I love love dancing! I have been taking classes in Rueda, and salsa and bachata are something I am better at :)

Músicas, Filmes e Livros

Disney music is Fantastic, fairytale-ish! The voices and the music are just so enchanting!
Disney movies, of course.
The movie "Anastasia" is not Disney, but still great (both the movie and the soundtracks).
I like the book "The Little Prince". The books about the power of our mind are also in my reading repertoire.

Uma Coisa Incrível que Eu Fiz

I have been to Alaska and met great people there! (lived there while I was on a Fulbright scholarship)
This is in addition to many wonderful things I have experienced!

Ensine, Aprenda, Compartilhe

Communication is fun and a tool for learning.
But remember that "everything we hear is an opinion and everything we see is a perspective".

O Que Posso Compartilhar com Anfitriões

Positive emotions, good cheer, and sharing cultural knowledge (I am from Russia, and I know something about my country :)
