Hey there! I'm Bota, originally a female from the heart of Central Asia, now based in the heart of Central Europe. A dreamer, a leader, a learner, a teacher, a cinephile, a traveller, a veggie, a bookwarm, a yogi on a quest of spiritual journey and self discovery.

I'm easy-going and a nice person to talk to. I'm interested in loads of things as languages, art, cinema, yoga, meditation, books, architecture, music, travelling, people watching.

I hope we will all get along very well.

Carpe diem.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
