CURRENT MISSION

find out what birds do in the winter.

ABOUT ME

I was an exchange student in Budapest, Hungary, studying Hungarian language and culture and basically that's how life brought me here. Already got a degree from the University of Sofia in the same major.
Originally from Bulgaria, half-Bulgarian, half Russian. I think people would say i'm quite talkative, music is lifesupporting and tons of books are more than welcome. And i think i should definitely start travelling a bit more. Well, i guess i made the first step towards that here. =)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Trying to share my view of Budapest and the little and big joys it brings.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far i've only been hosting and haven't surfed, but soon i'm going to plan a little trip of my own and i hope to be a surfer too! :)

Interests

Always browsing and looking for new music and books; can't say no to coffee and yes, i like wine. =)
Reading, translating, cafes, streets, parks, stuff.
