I'm an open-minded person interested in learning new cultures.
Travelling is my biggest passion! My travel companion, as you can see in the pictures, is that little toy raccoon . He's with me since I was a kid and I like to bring him everywhere and taking pictures of him with landscapes , works of art and friends.
I studied languages: russian and english, but for some reason I did my erasmus exchange in Germany. I like traveling solo because I think that in the end you're never alone.
I am currently living in Minsk, working with children and teenagers in conflict with the law and writing a blog, if you have time take a look :) https://aliceinwonderworld14.wordpress.com/

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think it's the best way to get to know locals and find some spots in the cities that surely you couldn't find by yourself!

Interests

I'm a fanatic of Harry Potter and I watch a lot of tv series. I could spend hours talking about how much I hated the season finale of How I met you mother, theories on who's A in Pretty Little Liars or how upset I am about George R. Martin killing off every character I love in Game of Thrones.
I like learning as many languages as I can, even if I know I am not going to use them!

Music, Movies, and Books

I love going to gigs and -even better- to music festivals around the world (in Italy they're pretty shitty)!
My favourite bands are: the Vaccines, Arctic Monkeys,Franz Ferdinand,Alt-j, the Strokes,Florence and the Machine and many others.
Yes, I'm into all that kind of indie stuff, but sometimes I just feel like listening to stupid songs, that's why I sing Taylor Swift's hits under the shower and once I sneaked into a One Direction concert and pretended to act like all the screaming teenagers around me.
My favourite movie directors are Woody Allen,Quentin Tarantino and Wes Anderson. One of my favourite movies is (besides Harry Potter of course) Forrest Gump .
I like reading. I love russian literature . My favourite book though is " The Unbearable Lightness of Being".
