Hey!
My name is Inga. The hardest thing for me is "to tell something about yourself". So, I prepared some facts about me and life.

Random facts about me&my life:

1. I'm from Russia. I was born in Perm city. It is a quite famous place (not really, hah). Have you heard about the Permian period? If so, you definitely know it was named after the city of Perm.

2. I'm a flexitarian. I prefer to eat vegetables rather than meat, but I do not hate meat eaters.

3. I live in China, Shanghai. I can speak Chinese (not really well, but I'm working on it)
Now I have "survival and daily life conversations" level.

4. I'm a part-time artist.

5. I love yoga (who doesn't?)

6. Just read all the facts again after some time. What a bullshit

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I use couchsurfing NOT because:
- Just have a spare room + don't care who will live with me + love strangers

I use CS because
- I can meet like-minded people + I would like to host people who understand CS is not a free hotel, accommodation is a bonus here

I'm probably won't reply (host you) if you send me a one-line message like "I'm coming to Shanghai, host me, please". I'm not a bad person or a snob, I think you didn't even try to put your effort in the message
