OUT OF RUSSIA UNTIL THE NEXT YEAR

I'm an artist, traveler, and -I hope- overall a good person :D
If I were to describe myself, I'd say I'm an easygoing and openminded introvert inside of a curious extrovert if you can imagine this mixture hehe
I enjoy discussions with interesting characters and learning new things, but if you prefer to stay apart it's absolutely fine.
Also, I love music and reading

I have an Instagram. Username is atennais

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to visit new countries, beautiful places, and especially draw them :)
I would like not only surf but also host as much as I've surfed. Unfortunately, my flat doesn't have enough space yet. I hope to offer my couch up more in the future!
I find the idea of Couchsurfing absolutely great. It's very important not only to get knowledge but share it too. It's so great to have an opportunity to soak up the culture in each adventure.

Interests

I like snowboarding (can't imagine my life without it), surfing, longboarding, and horse riding.
I recently got into video editing and it consumes my mind and time during travelings A LOT haha

I'm a painter and mostly I do wall murals.
Besides that, I like photography (never let the camera out of my hands) and absolutely love theater.
I suppose my weirdest hobby is lace making :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I like reading a lot. My favourite books are Les Miserables, The Hobbit, Pride and Prejudice, Three Men in a Boat by Jerome K. Jerome, The Twelve Chairs, 1984 by George Orwell, Crime and Punishment, White Nights by Fyodor Dostoyevsky ..and many other books.

I love Guy Ritchie's and Quentin Tarantino's movies.
From the last movies and shows I've watched, I like Call me by your name, The secret of kells, and Catch 22
And I always appreciate if someone shares things of their taste.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It's hard to choose between all little amazing things I've done :D
but in fact, long ago when I started to do snowboarding and did it well (won some competitions, etc.) it was awesome.
The second, but not the second best is the remembrance of my New Year trip some years ago: the darkest night, the beach, the red sea, and the stars..

Teach, Learn, Share

I really like to learn something new in my life, there are so many things that can interest me.
In my turn, I can teach you snowboarding, surfing, drawing and so on..
Maybe u also would be interested in Russian cookery.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Cleanliness, politeness, some stories, good time and all my life-experience! If you want to learn something I'd be happy to share my knowledge 'cause I think that's how the world should work.
And I'll draw your portrait as a memento if you want :)
