CURRENT MISSION

Getting used to life in Germany

ABOUT ME

I am a positive, open minded and a little overemotional person. Always excited to meet new people and make new friends. I was born and raised in Kazakhstan, at the age of 17 I went to China to do my undergrad studies . That's where I got to know my husband . so, here I am, in Germany , married , working in sales , learning the 5th language .

PHILOSOPHY

Most important is to live in a harmony with myself. There should be no excuses for physical and mental education . You are what your thoughts make you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Was told by someone it's good a way too meet up with interesting people around the world and make your own and others travels easier, cheaper, funnier.

Interests

Well most of the times I am pretty active and up for new things, I love to travel very much . I like mountains and I don't mind hiking (unless it's cold and/or I am hungover ) . However, I am more of a big city kind of girl :D I enjoy going out for long walks , food, coffee , movies, theaters , sightseeing, a few drinks and talks , parties with fun people . I consider a book and my mum as the best company , dislike shopping , and absolutely crazy about kids and cats. I love good food, not a bad cook.
I DON'T accept short-minded people in my life, these who think stereotypes and try to impose their opinions on me. If you are homophobic, racist and/or whatever other kind of discriminator we will not get along.

Music, Movies, and Books

definitely prefer books over movies . Into classical literature and modern prose. I listen to classical music , alternative rock , admire Rihanna's voice and beauty , love Three Days Grace, Arctic monkeys and Halestorm . I almost never watch music videos since I don't get a purpose of them ( can't resist a good parody to Taylor Swift tho :) . I can dance to any dumb beat in the club , but it doesn't mean I would play it in my headphones .
