CURRENT MISSION

"To see the world, things dangerous to come to,
to see behind walls, draw closer,
to find each other, and to feel.
That is the true purpose of life". @Secret Life of Walter Mitty

I am working on living as consciously and authentically as I can.

ABOUT ME

Open-minded, extraverted on the surface, intraverted in the core. Kind, responsible, honest human being.
Practical info: 25 years old, from Kyrgyzstan. Live in Germany for 3 years, 2 of them studied MA in English Philology in Göttingen. Currently residing in Berlin :)

PHILOSOPHY

"There is one thing of being afraid of dying. It's a whole different matter of being scared of living".
@ "Finding Your Feet"
I remind myself of this quote whenever I need extra dose of courage to follow my inner voice.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

EXPERIENCE

I have had a positive and mind-stimulating experience while using Couchsurfing app. You see, it's always better to connect with people living in your travel destinations. No hostel/hotel will provide this authenticity and real knowledge/learning of the culture/people/place.

兴趣

I enjoy practicing yoga (the simple hatha yoga, love the Youtube channel "Yoga with Adriene").
I love good music (anything except metall, hard rock)
Dancing is one of my biggest hobbies too, I am excited how easily one can express him/herself through the body movements guided by music and mood.
Reading (self-development, biography, detective, classic).

I wrote my MA thesis on "The Lord of the Rings", crazy, I know. My biggest fear was that by the completion of thesis writing I will start hating Tolkien whatsoever. Fortunately, I am still enchanted by the trilogy :)

音乐、电影和书籍

Music - you remember the soundtracks from "Secret life of Walter Mitty"? Well, I love it :) And am sure that you do too, if you've watched the movie.
Movies - kind/encouraging/meaningful/inspiring (lots of films :)
Books - the last book I've read is "Grit" by Angela Duckworth. Currently reading Tony Robbins "Awaken the Giant Within". I enjoy books which make me act and think differently in a positive way.
The favourite book is perhaps "Women Who Run with the Wolves" by Clarissa Pincola Estes. The deep and rejuvenating piece of constant motivation, applicable both for women as for men. Highly recommend :)

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Paragliding maybe, helps to see everything in perspective :)

I am an interesting and attentive interlocutor, empath and just a sociable friendly creature.
