Important Notes

-Please don't message me with just a "hello." Make sure to include a specific request or reason for contacting me, otherwise, I prefer not to answer messages or decline the request at once.
-I'm more likely to hang out with people I am hosting rather than those just looking to meet up.
-While I enjoy meeting new people and making connections, I'm not here for flirting. I appreciate respect and understanding in this regard.
-Sometimes I can be very busy with work or my daily responsibilities, so please be understanding if I can't meet up or respond immediately.
-Respecting personal space and house rules is important to me. Make sure to observe and follow them during your stay.

About Me

Living in the mountainous Vanadzor for the past 5 years, I've found my rhythm in this charming city. By day, I dedicate myself to the NGO sector, working towards positive social change.
I have a passion for dancing that simply can't be contained. Give me a techno beat and a crowd of kindred spirits, and I'm in my element. I'm always eager to embrace new experiences, whether it's an impromptu road trip or hitchhiking my way across a new place.
In my quieter moments, you might find me writing, watching a movie (my favorite genre is arthouse), or simply being introspective. I'm an open-minded soul who embraces diversity. I love connecting with all kinds of human beings in my life.
So if you're a fellow free spirit looking to tap into the vibrant energy of Vanadzor or anywhere our paths could cross, I'm game to host you or link up for an epic adventure!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As someone who loves to immerse myself in new cultures and connect with open-minded people, Couchsurfing is the perfect community for me. I'm drawn to the spirit of sharing, spontaneity and embracing new experiences that this platform represents.
Meeting locals is one of the best ways to truly understand a place. I love being able to tap into the perspectives of Couchsurfing hosts who can share authentic insights into their home city or country. Swapping stories and philosophies on life expands my own worldview.
At the same time, hosting travelers from around the world is an enriching experience. I enjoy making new friends, learning about their backgrounds, and showing them around my artistic mountain town of Vanadzor. An outsider's fresh perspective can help you see your own home through new lenses.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have a 4-year-old son, and as you can see, I survived.

Teach, Learn, Share

As someone deeply interested in cross-cultural exchange, I'm eager to connect with people from diverse backgrounds. I'm particularly passionate about learning Spanish at the moment and would love the opportunity to practice conversational skills with a native speaker. Immersing myself in another language is not only mentally stimulating but also opens doors to more fully understand and appreciate the rich cultures tied to that linguistic heritage. I believe sharing our unique traditions, perspectives and life experiences facilitates deeper human bonds transcending borders. If you're also enthusiastic about cultural exploration through language sharing, I'd be delighted to embark on that journey of mutual learning and growth together.
