About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to save the world :)

ABOUT ME

My name is Zhanna/Janna, but you can call me Jane or Jeanne as well. Right now I don´t live anywhere. And I am on move :)

You may be surprised by my nickname in couchsurfing. The reason is when I was trying different nicknames for signing up, all of them were taken. At some point I saw the cigarettes "BOND" in front of my laptop, and I tried the nickname "msbond", and so it worked. Since then I have this nickname.

I am like a kid: so curios, I love to discover new things. That is one of the reasons why I like traveling and meeting new people.

It may seem from this CS profile that I am a party girl and stuff like this, but actually it is not like that, I am a quiet person.

PHILOSOPHY

I love some quotations which express quite well my attitude to life, my personal philosophy:

"The aim of the life is to live, and to live means to be aware, joyously, drunkenly, serenely, divinely aware..." Henry Miller
(but don't loose awareness in "drunkenly" :)

"I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious." - Albert Einstein

To hell with circumstances; I create opportunities :)

"We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them." Albert Einstein

"Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If you love what you are doing, you will be successful." Albert Einstein

I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel's sake. The great affair is to move.
Robert Louis Stevenson

“Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving. Albert Einstein

Yes, keep moving!!!! And dancing ))))

Discontent is the first step in the progress.
Oscar Wilde

Love is not primarily a relationship to a specific person; it is an attitude, an ordination of character which determines the relatedness of the person to the whole world as a whole, not toward one object of love. Erich Fromm

I love life :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can't host now, but I surf and meet people for coffee or drink or whatever comes up.
Very often I attend CS meetings, few times in Kiev, sometimes in Leipzig (where I study) and when I lived in Valencia and Wroclaw as well.
Couchsurfing for me is like one of ways of living, nowadays it is a bit hard to imagine my life without it. I met great people from couchsurfing, and surely there will be more.
