Hello! I study and work the same time and the same place - at the my university. I'm radio host on the university radiostation. My job includes a lot of communication, I often get interviews from different people of my international university (so I wont be silent :)) who tells to me about native culture (Chinese, Korean, CIS... ) And I'm gladly to tell about my country and Russian livestyle.
I often participate in volunteer programs abroad because I love to travel, to communicate and create something new.
By the way, my English is intermediate (not high), but I very love to listen foreign speech and now I'm learning English and increase it every day :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Cultural exchange is a wonderful thing! I like to know how people differently live, not just look at attractions in other countries. As a tourist I love to know new places through the locals, I love to communicate and I'm not picky in housing.

Music, Movies, and Books

I have a list of favorite Directors: Wes Anderson,Tim Burton,Gaspar Noé,Lynch, Sorrentino, Tarantino, Joe Wright, Woody Allen, Trier, Kubrick etc. Seweral years I use to work in a paper about the cinema, I watched different films and wrote reviews, so I've watched a lot of movies)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Last year I flew for the first time in my first lonely trip

Teach, Learn, Share

I have some universal skills e.g. I can spend fitness training (I was doing fitness for a long time, and at the University I spent a few physical education lessons). I very love to share recipes of Russian cuisine, but even more I love to learn new recipes.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share knowledges about different cultures, discuss some films, to cook something unusual or to join the walk (or trip) outside the home.
