About Me

ABOUT ME

I was born in Minsk (Belarus), but I've studied at the university in Moscow (Russia). Now I work in the sphere of computational linguistics.
I used to study theoretical and applied linguistics and a lot of languages, that's also my hobby.
I adore speaking with people of different cultures, especially if I can do that in their native language. Still I'm not a bore, so I won't bother :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've CouchSurfed 2 days in Kraków, 2 days in Warsaw and a day in Stuttgart, and in all the cities it was great!
Also I hosted some times people from Poland, Vietnam and Russia; it seems to me, it was nice :)

Interests

1. As I am a linguist, I like to talk about languages, to speak different languages and to learn them.
2. I like singing. Sometimes I participate in different concerts and contests.
3. I like teaching. I had an experience of teaching scholars linguistics and giving lectures about different languages on Language Festivals. Now I am also a lecturer at the university.

And some more hobbies :)

  • singing
  • concerts
  • festivals
  • languages

Music, Movies, and Books

I am fond of musicals. I've watched lots of them in Russia and some other countries and I hope to visit some day Broadway and West End. Still I prefer french musicals.

My favorite authors are Vasil Bykau, Robert Sheckley and Joanne K. Rowling. Not something unusual:)
