About Me

CURRENT MISSION

IF IT IS TO BE ITS UP TO ME :D

ABOUT ME

Hello!;) I'm Natasha. I was born in Siberia, in a beautiful city called Krasnoyarsk, located right in the middle of Russia. In the year of 2010 I moved to Vladivostok and it appeared to be some kind of a challenge. My life had changed a lot, but I enjoyed it like always. After Vladivostok I decided to go to Kiev for a while...So, I had been living in Ukraine for almost a year before making a big Eurotrip and moving to Japan. I spent 6 months living in Tokyo and after that I moved to live and work in Saint Petersburg, Russia with my Japanese husband :) Life is a journey and we are always on the move!! I have experience staying in youth hostels, host family while traveling abroad and also CS. People around me say that I'm friendly and open-minded, and yes, i enjoy meeting people from different countries, learning about other cultures and making new friends! I find it really fascinating when you get to know a person of a foreign culture, and you share some views and thoughts, discuss anything, enjoying each other's company. This world has so much to offer, I believe we should just open our eyes and see it. Be ready for some fresh air~I hope to find more friends with the help of CS and to learn more about the world;)

PHILOSOPHY

Reach for the Moon and even if you miss, you'll still be among the stars :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like CS: surfing and hosting people is so much fun if both sides know how to do it right - there are some certain basic rules for that. Check them out here on this website!:)

And please, DON'T send messages without addressing me with my name - it's more likely I'll just ignore it because a person doesn't seem to care that much sending out copy-pastes..

Music, Movies, and Books

i like different books, started reading them when i was 3... my eyes blame me for that though..:)

as for movies, i prefer smart comedies, but i also like watching something soul-touching, something that brings tears to your eyes and makes you review the simple things in life..

music - depends on my mood, I like Japanese pop music:)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

- saw a launch of the space shuttle Atlantis from Cp Canaveral in Florida in the States - it was quite impressive!
- climbed the Great Wall of China - i thought i'd die somewhere on the way, lol
- got into one of the egyptian pyramids - i don't believe it spoils your karma :D
- explored the jungles of Borneo (maybe not the very real ones, but yet truly exciting)
- enjoyed wonderful city views from the top of Empire State Bld in NYC, Tokyo and Eiffel towers - and wondered what it would feel like to be a bird ~
and many more!:)
