About Me

ABOUT ME

I am open minded and active person. Moreover I am sociable and easily find contact with people. I have quite a wide range of friends though still prefer having a couple of really close ones. I am very determined about what I am doing and prefer to organize things in advance making sure that me and my friends are satisfied and secure. One of my hobbies is cooking, therefore I am always glad to cook something and make sure my guests are sated and pleased. I am second year master's student at Higher School of Economics in Moscow (Russia). Previously I have studied in Riga (Latvia) and Barcelona (Spain). For now I am striving for adventures, experience and new connections!

PS. Previously I held this profile with my boyfriend, therefore some feedback are provided for his trips.

PHILOSOPHY

I have a lot to say when you meet me in personal. Though I would say that I like to discover, take responsibility and provide help!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My aim is to meet new friends, new people, to get social and traveling experience, to learn something new! Unfortunately for now I cannot afford a sleeping place, though I can help in various ways; meet at the airport, bus station, show the city.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have successfully used couch surfing while travelling in Spain and Europe.

Interests

Well, I really like meeting people. I had an experience in living with an English family in Bournemouth (UK)and very much appreciated this opportunity. Apart from that I really like learning new languages which allows me to reduce the communication barriers with foreigners. As I already mentioned I love cooking and inviting friends to my place. My free time could vary significantly as it mostly depends on my mood. There are days I prefer nature, walking near the sea to city center, while there are also such when I party hard. :) I am always open for trying something new!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of the brightest experiences I had was going to London just for a couple of hours with a map and an approximate plan of what I would like to see there. It was in a way a crazy rushing around London's centre but I feel quite proud of myself after successful surviving and more or less managing to see things I wanted.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach - languages, cooking, fitness, dietary, nutrition.
