Currently doing my Erasmus Exchange in Glasgow, United Kingdom.

Like most of people on CS, I also love traveling and meeting new people. During my study in Tallinn, Estonia, I traveled a lot through Europe and visited 12 countries which was the best travel experience in my life. I am glad that I got this opportunity because I got to know to absolutely amazing people with different cultures and lifestyle, visited many popular and historical places.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I wanted to break free from my comfort zone and try new stuff. It is a great opportunity for meeting new interesting people and make new friends from all over the world. Also feels nice to help to someone. CS made my traveling much more exciting and joyful. I believe, that only native people can show the travelers the real beauty of a certain place, as they know all the hidden gems of the city, that are not for the tourists. That way the travelers can experience the unique local atmosphere.

Interests

I like adventures, trying out new and interesting things and communicating with people, learning about other countries and cultures. Mount climbing, camping, it feels so nice to be in beautiful nature. I also like hitchhiking. It is really interesting way of travelling. You can experience the kindness of strangers. Sometimes, I enjoy playing guitar and singing. I would like to hear some songs from your country.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: some acoustic simple songs, alternative-rock, progressive rock/metal, blues, soundtracks, electronic music, depends on mood.
Movies: It is hard to make a choice because lots of them are very special for me but I would distinguish some of them: Scent of a Woman, Gladiator, Meet Joe Black, The Dark Knight, Legend and etc.
Books: I like reading good crime books, some science fictions and adventures as well.
