CURRENT MISSION

To see new things and meet new people, and to learn five languages!!!

ABOUT ME

I'm short and I like doing stuff, namely going to new countries. I also like learning languages, and I spent a year in Ukraine. I speak both Russian and French quite well... I also like hiking and most physical activity with the exception of running, basically because after about three minutes I look like a lobster hybrid.

PHILOSOPHY

Be nice to people. Hopefully they'll be nice to you back.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Well I only just signed up! So hopefully in the future I'll be able to show people around both London and Nottingham, and maybe offer a couch depending on the whims of my housemates and parents!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couchsurfed around Finland, staying with five hosts. I had a great time and met a lot of wonderful people, so I'm keen to keep having good new experiences!

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I went to Iceland and it was the most beautiful country I've ever seen, and one of the quietest. As I live in London, light pollution means I never see the night sky with all the stars, and seeing that in Iceland, as well as the northern lights (twice!) was awesome. I also lived in Ukraine for a year, which was interesting and gave me a new perspective on my own culture as well as someone else's! I went couchsurfing in Finland and I had an amazing time, seeing a lot of things that I would never have found about had I been staying in a hostel.

教，学，和分享

If anyone wants to learn some basic Russian/French or English I'm willing to share something! I worked as an EFL teacher for a year in Ukraine. I'd like to learn a bit more Ukrainian, and practice my Russian/French, and I'd also like to learn German.
