Currently I am living in Salzburg, Austria, and doing my volunteering year in non-commercial TV station.

Before that I was working as a freelance link builder in the field of online marketing/SEO. Probably I am shy at the beginning, but I am a kind and sensitive person. To get acquainted with a person is always better in real life :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To my mind, it is a great and unique tool of meeting new people, making friends and getting to know with new cultures through eyes of inhabitants. I believe, doing these things one could get a real impression of the place.

Interests

Cinematography: I can discuss films forever. My friends call me "Walking Kinopoisk," that means I know pretty much about films.

Playing the piano

Learning languages, currently German. I am really trying....der, die, das..really trying

Travelling. I've started back in 2015 and it is an incredible feeling of discovering the world from different points of view and place.

Love running, the best workout for me!

Music, Movies, and Books

I like Alternative Rock bands, Indi Rock and some electronica (IAMX espacially). The list of bands is really huge :D Also, I've recently got into the 70-80th bands, love Duran Duran, The Smiths, Cure.

Since I consider myself as a film fan I like many of them. My favorite directors are David Fincher, Guy Ritchie, Tom Hooper, Christopher Nolan, Wes Anderson and that is not all. I guess the most favorite film is "Run Lola Run" by Tom Tykwer and "Silver Linings Playbook" by David O. Russell.

Also, I like TV shows such as Game of Thrones (a huge fan), Stranger Things, Orange is the New Black, Shameless, Sherlock (BBC) and many others.

My favorite books: "Anna Karenina" by Leo Tolstoy and "The Martian Chronicles" by Ray Bradbury

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've been to live concerts performed by IAMX and Tom Odell (separately obviously😂) and let me tell you that it was just a blast!

Also, as a kid I traveled to Kazakhstan by train during 4 (!) days nonstop and 4 (!) days back.
