Overview
About Me
UPDATE: Just back to Tbilisi after a year of living in Spain.
Born and raised in Georgia , currently living in North of Spain,in Galicia doing Erasmus EVS, exploring life and myself on the way.
Finding myself through living in a foreign country,learning new language and travelling would be the right way to describe my state of life right now.
I'm curious about different things, I like to meet new people and learn something new.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I strongly believe that every person can learn a lot from anyone and CS gives the great possibility to meet new people we could have never met without it!
I am here to make a lots of friends in many different countries,to share culture of Georgia with them and the most important: to be positive and give good vibes of energy to other. I believe that "sharing is caring" and try to follow this principle.
Interests
I am really into playing games- while childhood it was video games,when now I am a great fan of board games. I love gathering with friend and even people I dont know to play and explore different board game. Due to this interest I spend couple of last years deepening knowledge in the topic and got experience of creation and testing of educational simulations games for youngsters and adults.
I also love nature and hiking.I am interested in outdoor education and trying to learn and deepen knowledge in this topic as well.
Travelling is very important aspect for me as it gives me boost for new ideas and exploration,brings new possibilities and just makes life more vivid with emotions and people of course.

Music, Movies, and Books
I like every kind of music,that gives me vibe and energy-it is mostly rock music and indie (but I dont mind for any other kind of music if it has quality ) . Especially I love "Arctic Monkeys" "Muse" "Kings of Leon" .
I am a big fan of movies,and especially of dramas,connected with science. Among of my most favorite movies are "Arrival" "Interstellar" "Fight Club" "Inception" and so on. I like movies which leave you "food for mind" after watching.
I am not a big bookreader to be honest ,but I really love series of "Metro 2033" and all this atmosphere of post apocalypses . Among the last books I read I want to figure out "Text" by Dmitri Glukhovsky and "Chapaev and void" by Pelevin. I prefer to read in Russian as it was my first language that I started to learn.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Created bundle of educational games for youngsters on the topic of entrepreneurship. Created DIY "Escape Room" within international project.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach a lot of staff about Georgia-history,traditions and customs. Due to my degree in engineering,we can have some science discussions as well ).
I am also interested in history of the 20th century and phenomena of USSR and its influence on the eastern countries,as well as Georgia.Have some knowledge which will be glad to present.
For the past 3 years I been actively involved in non-formal education and international projects ,where I gained a lot of knowledge through experience. Now I am working on the topic of gamification and education and will be glad to share with you my experience and tips on connecting of games and education.
