Being sincere is the strategy I choose for discovering the marvelous world around. Being open helps to do that easier.
I care and trust, share and ask. Curious (sometimes excessively, but not about personal stuff) and take 'weird' as a compliment. I travel to overcome stereotypes. After all, you never know before you try.

It will be nice to meet you, explore together, enjoy walking and talking (:

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Pretty often traveling and CS are just inseparable for me.
I always up to meeting with CSs in the cities where I live, cause it's a great chance to get know unique, inspiring, addicted to discovering and exploring folks. So, it's just a perfect way to expand one's mind and share.
P.S. I don't use CS either to find a one-night stand or love of my life. Some people do and become very frustrated if refused — that's where my negative reference is coming from (that's a funny story, will tell you when we meet).

Interests

I prefer to keep myself active, visit workshops and lectures on various topics, art and live music events, festivals.
Volunteering and traveling have been essential parts of my life, giving an amazing opportunity to explore, expand horizons, try new things and, of course, meet exceptional people.
I am also into photography, dancing, socializing, endless walking and smiling :)

Always in a search for new passions, discoveries, and connections.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Jazz (acid, model, swing, ska), some rock, some country, instrumental (as modern, as classic), reggae, lo-fi, ethnic etc. Whatever makes me dance, whistle or shut up and listen.
Movies: mostly documentaries or another thought provoking works.
Books: neuroscience, sth about behaviorism and personal development.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Got born and live my life.
Every life experience and meeting is amazing in its' own unique way. If one is open enough to see that.

Teach, Learn, Share

The knowledge exists only if can be shared. Thus, all my skills and experiences are always available for people around — just ask about any!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good vibes.
Tips about volunteering/working abroad, international exchanges and travelling.
I love to walk and search for original places, so I help to open new city spots even for citizens.
I can draw henna and do hair wraps, like to cook (and eat :D).
