Hi All! Asya here, passionate about traveling, causes, and the environment! I am into sustainability and responsible travel! Also really into different types of cuisines and brewery, so down to try food every single second of every single day.
I love meeting people, learn about their cultures and make connections all around the world! I am a people's person, and have a good balance of intro-extrovertness :) What I value most is to make connections in life, and inspire each other through our personal stories. A simple yet effective way to touch each other's hearts :) Hoping to incorporate this philosophy more as I meet more people through Couchsurfing!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Want to meet people while traveling! Inspired by people who also have an appreciation for traveling! :)
Currently trying to find a place in Potsdam, Germany to continue my Master's so if you have any tips, please reach out to me!

Music, Movies, and Books

Into The Wild-Both the movie and the book
The Godfather
American Beauty
The Broken Circle Breakdown
Blue is the Warmest Color
21 Grams
(guilty pleasure)-Surf's Up!

Stefan Zweig, Hermann Hesse and a few Turkish authors are my favorite authors! I really like Garcia Marquez and Pablo Neruda as well :)

I also listen to anything, from jazz to electro-fuse to rock to 80's disco, you pick. One of my favorite activities is to pay attention to what is playing in the background when sitting in a cafe or a movie and shazzam them to add them to my super complicated playlist :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Train-trip throughout Quebec, Canada
Learn horseback riding
Moving to the US for my Bachelor's when I was 17
Learn surfing in Ecuador!
Taking the old train from Moscow to St. Petersburg
I have a lot of things to list! :)

Teach, Learn, Share

Super into learning about mediation and Yoga! I practice Ashtanga and Vinyasa yoga!
Also a science nerd, I love learning as much as teaching whatever I know!
I love talking about character analysis of movies and books! Into cinema, scripts, acting... Pretty much into anything that has to do arts-sociology-anthropology

What I Can Share with Hosts

First and foremost, good company and a good ear to listen to your story. Isn't it why we all are here? :)
I also practice and teach yoga, so there's that :)
If we also do any outdoors stuff, I am a good travel partner who likes adventures and is very easy-going :)
