I am an Astronomy PhD student in Baltimore, USA and space is a huge passion of mine. I love going on tangents about space, so stop me if that happens :D

I think all people have unique lives and interesting stories to share, so I love travelling and getting to know more of those.

I can be a bit shy at first, but don't worry - I'm excited to get to know you :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The same reason we all are - it's the best way to travel and learn new things!

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies - August Rush, Interstellar, V for Vendetta, Clockwork Orange and many more. Also all those Netflix TV shows :)

Books - nerd alert! The Silmarillion & LoTR, Foundation, Dune, Horus Heresy, Master & Margarita and a bunch more fantasy and sci-fi :)

Music - I'm curious to listen to most things; on daily basis I listen to mostly listen to Russian folk/rock. There's a special place in my heart for oldey rock: RHCP, David Bowie, Metallica, Rammstein, Lead Zeppelin... But I'm not too cool for some occasional Tay Tay either ;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Moving to Vietnam without knowing English or Vietnamese (only Russian) is something I'm most proud of. It was challenging but really fun :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Stories and a fun time, a generally chill attitude :)
