I'm an architecture student studying in Scotland.
Since childhood I've had an inner urge to explore and create (hopefully, something opposite of a mess ). Sketchbooks are filled with drawings, photos and notes of places I've seen.
My studies have helped me put more attention to details, small pleasures of life.
The more I travelled, the more books I read, urge of learning has become stronger.

P.S. As an architecture student I am used to cleaning up after myself (especially messy spaces after model making), keeping my surroundings tidy and clean is a habit.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is a great internet platform to find people who share the same passion for exploring and learning about different places and cultures. By seeing how other people live and showing my way of life, I widen my horizon. Coachsurfing helps to look at travelling from a different perspective.

Interests

As an architecture student I am interested in several topics that include art, physics, literature, psychology, etc.
Since childhood I have been an avid reader, so I'll be glad to chat about that.
I am interested in hearing what other people are passionate about. That always ignites an interest in me about the subject.
I have played volleyball for six years. I have this peculiar thought that each episode on the court can somehow relate to "real" life. Relationships between players and attitude towards game can often be translated to life and causality relationship.
I hope I can learn and share knowledge not only of those subjects, but many other as well.

• literature
• poetry
• architecture
• photography
• drawing

• volleyball
• art history
• psychology
• films
• learning languages

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My friend and I found a small waterfall in the woods in Slovenian Alps. The water was crystal clear and refreshing. Place was beautiful and feeling was surreal. It was like a scene from a dream.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Stories about my travels and hitchhiking experience. If my host is willing to listen and teach me something, then I would love to talk about architecture related subjects as well as any other topic we are interested in.
I can try to revive my rusty piano skills.
