About Me

***if I texted to you and you didnt see it in time, but you see now - write me pls a message!! probably it s still actually or next time will be:-) good luck!***

Currently in Abkhazia (Sukhumi) in nice quite place - YOU RE WELCOME!)))

So...)))
Hello for everybody!!
I m Marina and I m long alone traveler over the world... :-)

Now i spend a winter in Abkhazia and hope to be here until warm))

Before in 2022 i traveled Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Altay, a bit Ural, Krimea seacoast at autumn... By car driving...

Before... 2.5 years i stuck (with a big pleasure☺) in Bali island during corona time...

before ... mmm))) I had very long, adventure and beautiful trip in Myanmar and in remote areas of Indonesia!)) Oh!)) A lot of hitchhiking... deep countryside... really it was incredible trip!))
But also it was very hard. And before i had also hard trip in central Asia - half car-driving / half hitchhiking)))

ABOUT ME
I love the life, love interesting people, quiet evenings and joyous mornings... But especially I like travelling and seeing all new things totally different one from another :)

MY STYLE - it's contemplation and deep sinking for feeling of smth interesting...
Mostly i like nature sites: the most preferable ones - far from anything. But also sometimes i like to be in modern life.
Also some historical places attracted me. But not everyone. I strongly think - there are a lot of places (include celebrated ones) which not good idea to visit. Should to think before to sink!:))

TO MEET ME: Only since recent time i start to meet other travelers and to be a member of travel community) I m bored to be alone))))) And i really want to have new friends with similar (or maybe totally different, unknown yet) interests. Coz my close friends from childhood and other periods of my life - are different. And i love them very much... but... it s not same )) I think you understand))

IF I M YOUR GUEST
I m really very neat, clean (actually i started near like everybody in corona situation now long ago before ... coz just i understood something about a life and health))...), responsible and intelligent. I m almost double high graduated. So even if your place is paradise palace - dont worry)) Nothing will be bad from me there. And you will not be shamed of me;)) if any;;)

But also i m totally BACKPACKER. Many people can not even imagine which places i sometimes stay))) Anywhere in deep countryside... Uh!)) and with my own tent sometimes..;)) Uh!)) Maybe, if we will meet, i ll tell you smth about)) You will be surprised and will laugh for sure))
So, dont worry if your place is very simple))) .... Even sometimes i prefer it)...

And in any case (for everything totally uncomfortable also) - i appreciate very much;)) The most needed thing ever - is hospitality!)))

------- For sure, i m not a GIRLFRIEND. And totally dont want to talk with somebody going this way. I m already bored of...;);)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

few days ago i saw in one amazing profile a very good phrase about it - "unconditional contact" - "connecting with others regardless of our differences in skin colour, gender, ages, religious belief, political belief, and sexual orientation")))
I think - this is true)

CS really widened representation of our world in my head... it s... WOW! I ve never thought that possible to be experience like that... so many new things, so many even new (somebody's) worlds i knew in last time when i use CS... there is no words to explain really what i feel about and how i grateful for persons who share with me a part of their lives...
CS is a thing totally different from everything what else can give us our world... It s wonderful!!!)))

Interests

The most great interest of my life - is developing of different senses and building my inner entity from the best ones.

I trust that every time when we take any food or any information (so every moment of our life) we should think - what we are doing... It will be a part of me, my body, my life... will be a part even of life of my children if they will be. I want it to be a part of me or not?)
So ... there are a lot of things which better not to touch and even not to see!))
But there also a lot of things which are great material for own world)) Like blossom of beauty flowers, tremendous trees in tropical wood, good music, moments of tenderness with dear persons... A lot a lot a lot of things really) And i m fascinated wanderer who searching for different kinds of these everywhere)))

I prefer wonder. I prefer real magic of the world.
So - it s my choice of everything what i take: moovies, books, people, talking, sites... places... ))

  • realize marvel!

Music, Movies, and Books

kind, beautiful, smart.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I traveled for a long time alone by hitch-hiking in India (mostly north)

I traveled for a long time alone by hitch-hiking in Tajikistan and other regions of Central Asia.

Mya last treap (before now) was 1-self 2 month trip in Myanmar. In deep countryside. Almost everywhere - by hitchhiking))) It was unfoкgettable!))

40 days I traveled totally alone in Madagascar - it was also impressed.

I had a long time alone trip driving my own car across Russia, Kazakhstan and Kirgyzstan. Mostly in nature sites.

And there are a lot of other interesting travel things...
And others - not traveling things) But it s already private life;))))

... One person told: in my profile i looks like superhero;) I m not sure about super;---))) ... But, even me, i already think that a kind of hero - maybe i already looks;---))) ahaha))) Never could think...

Teach, Learn, Share

about travelling of cause... i m (think about myself) skillful one!)))
For what, all of us, we are here?)

... maybe also smth about vegan and raw food diet))) If you really interesting about...

What I Can Share with Hosts

joy! It s the best))

Sometimes i can cook delicious food (in my, very different from smth else, almost-raw-vegan style. It s interesting and really delicious... But it takes time and different products should be enough... So i make it rare (despite of i like to do) and can not promise((
