About Me

CURRENT MISSION

"The mind is everything. What you think you become."

ABOUT ME

Hi!
So, where to begin?
I think that my references from people I have met on CS gives a better description rather then me trying to describe myself... But of course it is nice to write something so here we go:

I love being out in nature and enjoy outdoors as much as I appreciate dancing until the morning sun with my friends.

Since several years back I work full time as social media manager and short film production.

I love the smell of the forest and I´m totally fascinated by waterfalls.
During spring and summer time, I spend a lot of time at my allotment, I find it very relaxing and wonderful. It's really a great escape from the city :)

PHILOSOPHY

"Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first CS experience was when I visited NYC in July, 2009. I stayed at Philips couch for two days.
In 2010, I was traveling with my best friend Andrey. We were CS together in Denmark - it was a wonderful experience!
My latest CS was in May 2012 together with two friends from Moscow, we traveled to Island for one week and stayed at Andres place in a little town called Akureyri.
