About Me

I'm currently an Erasmus student at the University of Warsaw. I study visual culture. I'm an outgoing and super friendly person who gets extemely excited when talking to people. I love to learn new stuff and to see new places.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Talk to people, laught with people, share stories, food and heart! ╰(▔∀▔)╯

Interests

I am majoring in Film and Electronic Arts. I know a lot about this stuff, dream to make a movie one day. Aside from that, I am good at Russian history. Also, I'm a fan of really long walks. It's kind of meditation to me.
