I am 27, was born in a little but still great town in Latvia, called Ventspils. My family is Russian, so my first language is Russian, but I know Latvian, English and Italian :)

I studied in capital city Riga and I graduated from maritime academy several years ago (port and shipping management). I also did Erasmus in Pisa, a really unforgettable year of my life :)

Then I have worked in logistics field.

I am married with and Italian guy (Gianvito) whom I first met in Bulgaria in 2008 :) after some periods living apart and in Italy, than in Latvia, we have moved to China together, as he was offered good job position. We are in Chengdu now, discovering city, tasty food and beautiful temples and getting new experiences :)

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

It has started because of a friend, she is quite active couch-surfer, plus the idea to meet locals and make friends is really great :)

Intereses

Despite sometimes I like to lay and read a book, I generally like active rest - walks, discovering new places... camping, hiking, kayaking.. I am in! I really love nature and especially being around (or in) water. I think the most beautiful landscape is mountains +ocean or sea/lake :)

Música, películas y libros

Music: many different genres, except really heavy music I guess... if u check my playlist it's a mess. I have got music for every kind of mood :)

Movies: comedy, science fiction, drama, adventures (all except horror I guess). My favourite animation is Lion King.

Books: adventures, memoirs, historical, science fiction... one of favourite authors is Alexander Dumas.

Algo increíble que he hecho

I am not sure. It is hard for me to judge myself :) maybe when we have got married in a month, and stayed in t-shirts, jeans and converse shoes on ceremony :) or moved to China?..

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I can teach you something from the languages I know, to tell you about cultural differences between russian/Latvian/Italian/chinese culture. I can share some cooking tips/recipes from Russian or Italian cuisine.
