ABOUT ME

Born in Kazakhstan, I grew up in Germany most of my life - that means over 20 years. I recently finished my acting studies at Alanus University of Arts and Social Sciences in Cologne/Bonn.

To have or to be? This might be another important question, Hamlet?

Kunst!art, theatre, film, exhibitions, fine arts, performances - if you're into such stuff then let me know!

Challenging myself is a vital part of my life. "Anxiety is the dizziness of freedom." - Søren Kierkegaard

There are a lot of books in my book shelf I want to read. Well, soon!

I don't drink cola, not at all.

Yes, driving the car is fun but I would love to ride the motorbike. Working on that!

I tend to get upset when the internet's not working on my mobile phone. puh.

I could be more punctual. Sometimes I need to run for the subway. That's the thrill in my life.

And well, passionate, at least my friends tell me so

I love powernapping and lime blossom tea! It's my medicine and joy

PHILOSOPHY

As long as the quest does not end, everything is fine.

Responsibility is freedom

Let's not lose ourselves in nostalgia

"The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes." - Marcel Proust

easy going and honest, typical German straightforwardness, reflective, sometimes sarcastic, rather extrovert but not that kind of "party freak"-person you might expect, nevertheless I love to party sometimes and always open for talks about art, art, art :)

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

The flat I'm living in does not offer any room for someone to stay here, I'm sorry about that. But I can support your stay by showing you around or going out for a beer or a coffee. Just write and let me know what you're up to!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I love this community! Glad for all the people I met and kindness I experienced :)

Música, películas y libros

I love movies! Birdman, Spring Breakers, The Neon Demon, Dead Man, Little Miss Sunshine, Le fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain, Wild Tales, Dead Poet Society, Atonement, Moonrise Kingdom...

Fun fact: I've never seen Game of Thrones or Breaking Bad. Not a single minute.

Pretty much interested in psychology. I wrote my diploma thesis about 'flow' experiences and read books about other topics.
Furthermore I admire authors such as Dostoyevsky, Heinrich Heine, Camus, Hesse, Erich Fromm, Kleist, Nietzsche...

I'm totally into rock music but I enjoy electro, pop and jazz/blues as well.
Always looking forward to visit a jazz jam session.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

Polonius:
"This above all: to thine own self be true,
And it must follow, as the night the day,
Thou canst not then be false to any man.
Farewell, my blessing season this in thee!"

Tupac:
"First, I want to say peace to my mother. She's not here, but I've got to give a 'peace out' to her. Yo, Polonius, man, shut the fuck up! Fear is stronger than love, remember that. Fear is stronger than love, all that love I gave didn't mean nothing when it came to fear. You ain't got no credibility, old man!"

Mickey Mouse:
"Oh boy, we got ears, say cheers! Hot dog, hot dog, hot diggety dog! Oh Toddles, Meeska Mouska, Mickey Mouse! Be true to yourself or be me, be Mickey Mouse Me! Hahaa!"
