Hello!
I'm an art student based in Moscow.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe that traveling should be fun and easygoing: meeting new people, exploring the area and be introduced to the local cuisine – these kind of goals should outweigh worries about place to stay or transport. In Russian culture, inviting or being a guest is a common and pleasant practice. Usually, I'm staying in the hostels and enjoying atmosphere there a lot. But you don't often see local people there, do you? So, I would appreciate more a deeper and closer connection to the local scene of where I am staying.

Interests

photography (Martin Parr, William Eggleston, Fotografiamagaz, ILL-STUDIO)
illustration (Michael DeForge, Yuichi Yokoyama, Chis Ware, Olivier Schrauwen)
graphic design
art! :)
cooking (Russian, Vietnamese, Tai, French and English cuisine)
reading (William Faulkner, Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Jeff Noon and Roald Dahl)

I'm also into weaving, felting, ceramics, costume and furniture design, drawing and painting.
I'm up for very long, random, group or single walks. Also, right now I'm learning how to cycle, so very soon it going to be one of the interests.
With my boyfriend we are into lindy hop.
