Hey! What do you want to know about me? The real reason of "why I am here" is that I really like traveling. I can't imagine my life without new cities, new emotions and impressions :) My name is Julia and I am 23 and I am from Moscow (Russia). Last year I finished my Bachelor's degree and officially can say that I am a specialist in Advertising and PR. After the moment when my bachelor's degree with honors was in my hands I decided to continue my studies and now I am a postgraduate student in RUDN (PFUR - Peoples' friendship university of Russia) on the faculty of Advertising management. But simultaneously with studies in Russia I have got the chance to try myself in the international program (Erasmus +) and now I am in Greece (Thessaloniki) in
Aristotle University of Thessaloniki as a Master of Digital arts, communications and journalism. So this trip to Greece is the best chance to visit other countries for me - because finally I get long-term multi visa!!! and I am absolutely ready for new traveling experience.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think that Couchsurfing is the best way to find out more about each country. This is not a boring room in the hotel or a bench in the park (yes, we are students and try to invest in emotions and impressions but not in a luxury view in front of window - but I wouldn't give it up if it's possible :)
So I am here to find new people who are ready to share their views on some topics, to discuss hobbies or practice other languages in the home atmosphere with a cup of tea (or coffee) and cookies. And of course it would be great if this couchsurfing experience gives me some instructions to examine the city and its interesting places.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: pop and classic (it depends on my mood but as for me pop for instance sometimes helps me to abstract during my working hours)
Films: for me films is the way to relax so I try to choose something not very difficult for my mind (but if it is new bestseller in other genre of course I will watch it becase of the my profession to know novelties).
Books: first of all classic literature - "Wuthering Heights", "Gone with the Wind", "Singing in the Thorns", "Master and Margarita", "Emma", "Fahrenheit 451" and modern ones for instance - Victoria Hislop "The Sunrise", "The Thread", "The Island".

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have rented the hlicopter to see from a bird's eye view the Niagara falls (the USA), I have tried an ostrich and crocodile in Vietnam, I have plunged into scuba diving in the Red sea, I have passed the longest pedestrian bridge in the world (Sochi, Russia) and the longest suspension bridge in the world (Nha Trang).

Teach, Learn, Share

We can discuss some topics connected with Advertising and PR, digital media and SMM (and general marketing). I can teach you Russian and for me I want to improve my English skills. I can tell you about my trips and places that I have mentioned from my point of view in the "must see list" and you can show me interesting sightseeings in your city.
