Overview
About Me
I'm a traveller and a wanderer by heart, I love good music, great books, I love when I can talk to people about those things and about languages, cultures, travelling, and most of all - life. I really enjoy discovering new places, finding new hidden treasures in the places I already know and also coming back to the places my heart and soul consider home. I love that my life gives me opportunities to experience amazing adventures - travelling fills me with an energy I never could've imagined before I first felt it. I love my solitude during my travels but at the same time, meeting new interesting people is one of the best things life has to offer.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
As I mentioned above, I love getting to know new places and meeting people from all around the world and from all kinds of cultures. I found the most amazing adventures thanks to hitchhiking and I feel like couchsurfing is closely connected to it. In places far away from home, I met plenty of amazing people who let me sleep on their couch, in their home or helped me otherwise, even if it wasn't through this site. I wish I will be able to return the favour once.
Interests
I've recently started climbing and it really caught me. I play the cello for more than 12 years, I love languages, photography and literature - reading and sometimes creating. I love nature, walks in a forest, camping and wandering.

Music, Movies, and Books
I am a huge bookworm - sometimes I think I'm addicted. I love the (English) classics, historical (non)fiction, some fantasy books, lots of realistic (especially war) novels, but a very special place in my heart is devoted to old Russian and Ukrainian literature.
L.N.Tolstoy, H.Hesse, E.Hemingway, E.M.Remarque, J.London, B.Pasternak, H.D.Thoreau, ...
One of my favourite directors is Jim Jarmusch but it doesn't end with him...
My most loved band of all times is Pink Floyd.
Nick Cave, Porcupine Tree, Tool, Threshold, Yes, System of a Down, Led Zeppelin, Joy Division, Savatage, Mastodon, Stoned Jesus, David Bowie... J.S.Bach, C.Saint-Saens, ...
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Found the courage to start a new life from the bottom.
Also, I hitchhiked over the Balkan states, I guess that's one of the things in my life that will always be the favourite memory.
