ABOUT ME

My friends tell I'm a sociable and cheerful person. I don't believe them, but they know better. :)

I do love to travel, so I travel a lot and have a lot of stories.

I'm from Russia, but currently I live in Amsterdam. Independently of the time passed here, I'm still new to Ams and I am still a foreigner. I hope to become more Dutch in some time. :)

PHILOSOPHY

Nobody know what gonna happen tomorrow... so just live for today! (is it an overused phrase? :) )

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to show my city to travelers, hang out with them and just to have fun with interesting people.
The second part are CS events. They are usually fun and open possibilities for a lot of connections with new people. :)

Interests

Sports - mountain skiing, figure skating.

Climbing, exploring roofs and glancing at people from the top :)

Programming and web-programming, travelling and walking with travelers, etc, etc, etc.

Moreover, I enjoy social dancing, like hustle or salsa. Do you want to try dancing with me? I'm not that good in dances but usually very enthusiastic.
