CURRENT MISSION

To see all the beauty of the world!... To understand why people are who they are.

ABOUT ME

Originally I am Russian but I have lived in Germany for 3 years and now I am leaving in Madrid, Spain.

I am a traveler, photo lover and foodie. Love to travel, learn languages, go to nice restaurants and bars, discover non-touristic places and make pictures.

I am an opened person, optimistic, active. In every situation I try to see the best. I like to go out with my friends but I also like to stay at home watching a movie or reading a good book.

PHILOSOPHY

What you do to other people is what returns to you after. Be kind, positive and use your chances and some day you will say : I have lived a good and interesting life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Four years ago I began to host and to travel staying by couchsurfers. It changed my life)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Sometimes being a student means to be full of energy and out of money. So I'm trying to fix this. Being a guest or a host is a big pleasure and I'm glad to be a part of the big CS family!
My hosts were always very friendly people. I stayed by CS in Italy, Portugal, France, Germany.

Interests

My biggest interest is photography. It has been my hobby since I was a child and Now I am doing it more professionally. Cinema is my second passion.

Back to school I studied at the art-school for several years. Talking about sport I used to do aikido for a very long time. I also used to dance ballet. It was my hobby in Russia and I really miss it now. In free time I gave German lessons for children. Now I am studying in Berlin, work as a freelancer in photography and as journalist and have my own travel blog (asyalevin.com).
I prefer to live in a big city because it gives more opportunities but deep inside I am dreaming about living on the sea in a small but beautiful village.
