About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Improv! Improvised comedy and theatre is my current passion.

ABOUT ME

I am very lucky to travel around playing and performing improv and love meeting new people and getting inspired by new ideas!

PHILOSOPHY

I am just very happy if I can sit and have an interesting conversation with a nice person over a cup of tea, something nice to eat. I love food! I love cooking: for myself and others!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would love to meet new people in and about Moscow and share ideas and good times together. I can show people around, share what I know about Moscow! I also run improv classes, jams, shows and invite you to take part or watch!

I'm working on creating a nice space for guests in my new flat.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have met some amazing people through CS!

Interests

Honestly all kinds of things but particularly improv - some friends and I are in a group called the Improv Generator and are looking for people to join us for jamming and improv sessions; medititation, philosophy; cooking and discovering new dishes and cuisines; nature; discovering more about Moscow, Russia, Russian culture; learning Russian, assorted geekery - Star Trek, Babylon 5 and other space-based sci-fi; learning languages.

Music, Movies, and Books

Truly love all kinds of music - folk, rock, dnb, ambient...

I'm also into Margaret Atwood novels at the moment. I wish I could paint with words like she can. Plus, Salinger is inspiring me greatly right now.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach improv, host jams, just play in general!

I'm interested in vegetarianism, veganism, raw-foodism. I'm not strictly adhering to any diet but love to learn new recipes, cooking methods, things like that. :)

Also, my exploration of meditation is in the early stages, so meeting any kind people who want to share some time and experience to help me further would be lovely!

I can also help with Russian a little bit! Teach the alphabet, some useful phrases!
