Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I have couchsurfed several times, during my trips in Europe. I haven't used this system for a while but i love and support the concept.
Music, Movies, and Books
Movies: some european, some soviet, some russian. Don't watch veeery often though. I am more keen on music! I love: -lovely tunes and deep meanings, -the feeling of personal involvement that some songs can provide, -going to huge concerts of living legends, -having a nice longdrink while listening to live music in a cosy bar, -talanted jazz improvisations, -more of thetalanted jazz improvisations, -dancing. My favourite contemporary writer is Johnathan Coe (Great Britain), this is an inexplicable passion. Just google and get any book of him! Probably you'll fall in love with him as well. Besides, the phrase "you are what you read" actually works very often. :) In case you are interested, i will try to tell you as much as i know about classical Russian literature. In fact, i love talking about books, though i still haven't read so many things i should read... And - yes! - i love to study the world atlas.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Mmm, quite a lot actually. Luckily. :) I had lots of funny adventures during my university studies and summer researches in the wilderness of Russian forests. I like to tell these stories). I love our planet, it is really amazing.
