"When the bird has flown

Got no place to call your home
When the bird has flown".

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think couchserfing is the most honest way to explore any new country. Also I like to meet new people, although I am a bit introverted actually.

Music, Movies, and Books

I use to listen various genres and artists, but there are some of them which I feel related to me more than others. For this case I can recall Nils Frahm, Yann Tiersen, John Frusciante, Burial, Nick Drake, Jackson C Frank, Thom Yorke.

I like weird atmospheric indie dramas like Buffalo'66, Last Days or Ghost World. Also almost everything by Jim Jarmusch

Talking about literature, I can mention these guys:
Julio Cortázar, J. D. Salinger, Tove Jansson, Emily Dickinson, Marina Tsvetaeva, Alexander Block, Boris Pasternak, Anna Akhmatova, Osip Mandelshtam . Also I addicted to poetry by Josef Brodsky since I was twelve y.o.
