Overview
About Me
I am a very kind girl with a good sense of humor. I love new acquaintances, but at the beginning I'm very shy, but I quickly find common themes for conversation and open up :3
I dream of traveling all over the world. But most of all I like Japan and everything connected with it. I want to try to find a job in Japan by profession and work in a chemical laboratory. I'M CRAZY ON CHEMISTRY :D
I used to play musical instruments (violin, piano, calimba), but since I decided to devote my life to science, I abandoned it for a long time and just listen to really good music. Jazz, folk, ambient, alternative and etc..
Why did I choose chemistry? Because I want to become a scientist and help the world as much as possible. I want to leave a trace of myself. Even if it does not work out some great discovery, I will invest all in making this world better by conducting daily research on the subject I have chosen.
There is also my other side. In the evenings, I watch anime (^^) with my cat and play games with friends on the Internet. Most of all I like singleplayers, where the subject is given a lot of attention. But do not disdain to play with friends and in Dota or Osu.
It's very difficult to combine everything that I do, but I try. Because I like it. ヽ(*・ω・)ノ
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm here because I want to find someone I can stop by while looking for an apartment in Japan. Unfortunately, I'm very scared to get into trouble and I want to first communicate with the person at the network, even if only for a week or two.
I will be very happy if I can find someone who shares my love for science. This would be an unforgettable experience for both, I think. (つ✧ω✧)つ I'd like to know how science is treated in Japan :3

I'm sorry that there will be so many performers and songs, but I hope that you will like my selection ^^ all from here you can find and listen. I think you will enjoy.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spoke at chemical conferences with my research and published articles in international journals.
Teach, Learn, Share
I really want to learn from you ABSOLUTELY everything that you know and can tell about your country and culture. About what you do. About how to spend your free time and your hobbies, if they exist.
In turn, I can tell you in broken English how our world works, about atoms and electrons, about quantum chemistry and how it is easy to solve the Schroedinger equation in the approximation of the method of molecular orbitals :D and I'm not kidding. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
What I Can Share with Hosts
Apart from some trifles, like souvenirs from Russia, vodka, a bear and a balalaika, I can bring you reagents to grow a cool crystal together that will always remind you of me ヾ(^ω^*)
