CURRENT MISSION

Maintain the balance in this complicated though beautiful and interesting life

ABOUT ME

Open for adventures. I was travelling through the world in order to find harmony. After a sequence of some painful accidents I decided to keep my past life in home-city and leave for hunting the harmony. I wanted to feel this world through its countries, cities and people. And fortunately that helped me to find my point of life, my inner peace. So now I am a happy person who still is very passionate with travelling and Life overall.

PHILOSOPHY

I am very into Zen Buddism. I try to follow this philosophy. Tunning with the moment.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Back at my place in Russia I used to Host people even in poor conditions of my small apartment. But I did enjoy the company of many travelers from different countries with unique backgrounds and thoughts. It was like travelling within your own city.
During my travel I use CS to find a Couch, to meet new people, to spend a good time.
Now I am back in the league of Hosts!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I started my participation as a Host. That was a good experience. I hope someday I could continue this activity. I like CS meetings and try to spend time with foreigners.

Interests

Science. Especially nuclear physics and AstroPhysics! My major is in nuclear physics.

Literature. When I have free time you can always find me with a book. I am a bookworm.

Photo. That is my passion! I like digital and film shoots. During a journey I make photos practically every minute! But now I am a into film photography. I do everything by myself: shooting, developing and scanning. I dream of my lab where I will start even printing my pictures and experiment with it. I have a huge collection of film cameras. I also want to make my own camera one day. That is my ID at Flikr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/vixalice/

Yoga. Makes me calm and open to this world. I am a Yoga teacher. And I dream of my own studio.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Every person, every book, every country and city on my life path are amazing. I appreciate every moment.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can speak a lot about my experience in hobbies and passions: so I can teach physics as I have been studying it for 6 years. I can talk a lot about literature, especially Russian. I can teach about photography and postproduction (how to use Photoshop). I can talk for hours about film photography. I can teach Yoga, for sure, because I am a Yoga Instructor.

I want to learn how to play harmonica very-very much! And of course it is nice to learn new languages, new recipes, other cultures and traditions!
