About Me

My name is Anna and I'm highly spontaneous, fond of travelling and eager to learn all about languages, culture in general, politics, music, etc. pp.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's so sad when you're in a foreign country and all the people you meet are tourists. Tourists and travellers are great people, no doubt about that, but it's just great to also get to know people who have lived in the country you travel for some time, know the habits and have tips on where to go in a city and so on. In addition, I really like learning new languages and the best way to improve your knowledge is to speak to someone whose mother tongue you want to learn, of course.

Interests

They go from high to counter culture, from the most profane things to so called difficult literature. I like to cook, I love to eat. I go to theatre plays pretty often and I love acting. I listen to music all day long and I dance all night. I'm very into books, I treat them like friends. In fact, I can enjoy pretty much every story and topic if a fellow human is talking about something they love doing or thinking about.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can try to teach something about languages, translating, literature ... Whatever you're interested in. I give crash courses in irony.

What I Can Share with Hosts

What's the benefit of hosting me? I really don't know. I guess every person I know could name different qualities of mine that are delightful or not, depending on situation and people. Try if you can handle the Anna!
