Hi everyone! I'm 24 years old pretty girl from Belarus. All my life I lived in Minsk and now I'm volunteer in EVS project in Czech Republic. I work here in social area and I try to socialize in a new country

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think couchsurfing one of the best ways to get acquainted with oter culture and meet people with similar interests.

Interests

I like design, graphic art, photography and digital arts. It's my passion! It's the thing that I can do everytime and everywere. And when I meet other creative person, I can talk about my passion for hours, so be careful, if you don't want long talks about typefaces, grid sistems and photo technics :D
And this is my drawing portfolio, so if you're interested, you can check it http://hmelnitskaya-art.tumblr.com/
Besides that I'm fond of bicycle and generaly of sport. And also I'm dreaming about skydiving and for sure one day I'll do it.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm fascinated about music. I know enormous amount of cool bands in different styles, but my favourite music is synth, some kind of techno, post-punk, and shoegaze.

With great pleasure I visit partys, concerts and festivals, so if you such kind of person I think we will have fun togrther

I also enjoy reading, but mostly I read special technical literature about design, typefaces and graphic aditors.
Beside this I adore russian classics, my favourite writer is Dostojevskij, I adore all of his books.
Another couple of books that impressed me are Michail Bulgakov's "Heart of the dog", George Orwell's "1984" and Goethe's "Faust". Besides I love phylosophy and theology and it's always pleasure to find someone with whom I can discuss these topics.

As to TV shows, I'm delighted with british humor. I'm fan of Dylan Moran and Noel Fielding and I really like all that they do. These guys are amazing!
Besides I like moovies and I prefer works of Lars Von Trier, David Linch and swedish directors
