About Me

Cheerful and communicative. Sometimes can be crazy but usually I`m calm and responsible person =) Adore listening to fascinating stories about someone's adventures. Wouldn't say I'm a club person but I enjoy not crowded home parties very much, where it's possible easily talk to everyone.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Rarely have an opportunity to host, unfortunately. However, I am always glad to meet travelers for a drink and chat... or even a party ;) It's the best way to immerse in local life style while traveling and make journey more impressive and memorable.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like to visit music festivals - it`s the best way to see the most of favorite bands in short period of time and to meet great people with same interests.
FAVORITES: Editors, Sigur Ros, Radiohead, Placebo, Muse, Interpol, Coldplay, Keane, Regina Spektor, Everything is made in China, Ben Howard, etc.
_______________________________________________________

I like deep meaning movies which make me think after watching them. But sometimes it`s good to watch rom-coms and take a rest from brainwashing. It always depends on my mood. Also I like shorts very much.
FAVORITES: "Love Actually", "The Boat That Rocked", "Dogville", "Dancing in the Dark", "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind", "Heima".

Prefer modern literature but do not avoid classic.
