Hello everyone! My name is Anna, I am from Russia. I am now getting my Master's in sociology at Saint Petersburg State University. Now I am doing my Erasmus exchange in Uppsala, Sweden.
I love traveling, cooking, reading my book with a fancy latte :D, dancing, drunk karaoke haha, love when foreign friends teach me something about their culture, like greeting, traditions, foooood.
I play tennis and table tennis:)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love people and and have many friends abroad. I like to meet with my friends somewhere in a new place! Hope to meet new people and to show them my country in the future! I really like to meet new people from all over the world because it let me get closer with different nations and makes me feel like a part of their culture! I have American, Indian, Swiss, Polish, Japanese, Korean, Chinese and Azerbaijani friends already!

Music, Movies, and Books

Ohh... I guess you will agree with me that it's impossible to choose just one style of music or even a band! Anyway I am really obsessed with alternative rock, such bands like Hollywood Undead, Metallica, Rolling Stones, The Beatles, Green Day, Muse, AC/DC ant etc. and pop music like Adele, Rihanna, Twenty One Pilots, Beyoncé, Coldplay and etc.

I adore to read really interesting books, so if you can advice me some it would be nice! My favourites are "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" by Ken Kesey, "The Minds of Billy Milligan" by Daniel Keyes, "Crime and Punishment" by Fyodor Dostoyevsky.

Favourite movies are "Scent of a Woman" with Al Pacino and "Wicker Park"! Worth to see!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Two years ago I swam in the sea at night. Sea was full of jellyfish. They started to light up when I touched them accidently. It was an amazing view... I was swimming and the shining way behind me :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you russian language (and polish swearwords haha), how to draw smth really easy and quick! :) I am good at cocking, so we could make some dinner together! i would like to know something interesting about your country, something that an ordinary guide will never tell!
