CURRENT MISSION

To explore the World and to know myself better trough the people I meet

ABOUT ME

I'm 20 and I'm a very sociable person. I would like to make new friends and learn more about traditions of different countries! I really love people and adore exploring their inner worlds (if they don't mind and are open to me too :) ).

PHILOSOPHY

I can't live without aims that I' always trying to achieve. That's the only way for me to feel I'm not standing at the same place, I' m developing into a person I would like to see in the mirror in several years. But at the same time it's essentially not to forget about feelings of people that are close to us, to find time for showing them our love and care. To put it in a nutshell: TO FEEL THE BALANCE! :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Unfortunately, I can't host CSurfers now as I'm living with my family, but I find CSurfing the best way to travel and to make new friends, that' s why I try to use it as much as I can (Personally, I find those trips the most exciting and fun)!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I' ve already used CS in St. Petersburg, Paris and Las Vegas. All the trips were fantastic, so I don't want to stop!

Interests

Being a student of an international law faculty at Moscow State Institutr of International Relationship (University), I'm fond of the idea of self-development and self-improvement. I love playing tennis, horseriding, skiing, skating, studying foreign languages (English and French) and for sure my biggest passion is traveling! I can't express my feelings about it, I just can spend the money I have been saving for several months on going somewhere abroad! Not only do I aim to visit all the continents and countries, but to feel and understand each city and town I've ever been to and to make friends all over the world. At the same time I would be glad to recieve tourists from different countries (this will be possible when I start living separately from my parents).

Music, Movies, and Books

I am very proud of russian classic literature. My favourite books are "Anna Karenna" of Lev Tolstoi and "Tikhii Don" of Michael Sholokhov. I also prefer novels Ernest Hemingway and Erich Maria Remarque. Sometimes tangled detective stories

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Last summer I was in Turkey with my elder sister and her husband. In the end of our journey we bought a one day excursion on a big yacht. When a capitain stopped his yacht for us to swim in the sea, he suggested that we should go up in the mountain and jump from a cave in the water! He persuaded that it wasn't dangerous at all and that many people had already tried it and didn't regret! At first we declined his proposal, but then we decided to risk as we wanted to get some adrenaline! We got fantastic emotions! (a year and a half after writing this story I find it a bit careless), but cute as I wrote it being younger and that were the real feelings I had then. :) I just want to say that the thing I really love about it is that we change and that's natural) .
For now (I'm 19) the most amazing experience I've had is visiting USA (LA and Las Vegas) and France, and feeling myself among friends :)
