About Me

Hi there!

My name is Dasha, I never used Couchsurfing before (even though my profile says "Member since 2013"), but I heard a lot from my friends.
I hope we all can meet new great people and share our experiences.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Well, I love to travel, and meeting new people is one of the things I like about it. And I always love to meet locals, coz they know everything about their cities and it is super fun to be guided by people your age, that share same interests. I think the idea of Couchsurfing is great, it shows us that people are all pretty open and we do not need (we should not) stay in the comfort zone. So all we need to take a real adventure and meet someone really incredible is just book a couch.

Interests

As almost everyone I enjoy movies, music, books, politics, history, modern technology. I like sports, I used to fence, but now I do only yoga. Also I love cooking and (of course) when people cook for me :) I am a foodie.

Music, Movies, and Books

It is hard to say about my favorite music, because I am moody, so it all depends on what exactly I want to feel at that moment of time.
It is easier to talk about movies. I like Woody Allen's works and Almodovar's.
My favorite book is "When Nietzsche Wept" by Irvin D. Yalom and some other works of his.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It is hard to remember, not only because it was many amazing things that I have done :), but also because I do not really take credit for helping people or doing something for someone. If i like the person, it is pretty natural for me to be there when he/she needs me.

But. I sold my painting once. If that was the meaning of a question.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my traveling experience, Chinese/Russian knowledge, we can always have a great talk about everything, I like open people.
