not so easy to answer) I like changes, active life. I always travel when I can but I don't have much money working as a teacher so I usually hitch-hike and find people willing to host me. I'm fond of basketball a lot. I love animals. I am a volunteer at a local shelter for homeless cats. So I'm a vegetarian....

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I host travelleres, maily hitch-hikers myself in my Siberian town. While hitch-hiking I usually spend nights in a tent somewhere in a forest) But now when it's not a problem to get access to the net I prefer to find interesting people and stay with them.

Music, Movies, and Books

a lot... My preferences depend on many things) As for music I like rock, folk. I often travel to different musical festivals. Now I don't have a lot of free time to read but I've always enjoyed fantasy, phylosophy (esp. Nitsche) etc. I like films which make me feel smth, inspire. I prefer cinema not only as entertainment but mainly as art.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Once I've shaved completely) I was absolutely bold)) At those time people thought I was crazy)

Teach, Learn, Share

Self-development is one of my life goals so I like to learn a lot. It's so great to get to know new people, new culture. As a result you are inevitably changed yourself and it's wonderful. I can share all my experience too)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can be a talkative person if you are willing to listen to) It would be great to prectise the language while communicating.
