Overview
About Me
Maybe I am too suspicious - I think the web knows already too much about me :) I am the type of person who has problems with making decisions, but who can be really stubborn once the decision is made. Generally I prefer to take time for doing things- I love long train journeys and prefer walking rather than taking public transport, taking public transport rather than driving car.
Don´t trust me if it comes to guessing the distance - a tour of 6 km can appear as a nice small walk to me. ( Which it actually is!)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I met great people here, some of whom really influenced my way of functioning.
Interests
In a way I could say that I love collecting useless, old stuff in order to make something new out of it. Recently I started to be interested in such nerdy things as typography. But besides that I try to deal with more important stuff.
Music, Movies, and Books
I like absurd stories, no matter if in books or movies. I think that absurd stories describe reality in the most truthful way.
Short stories by Felicitas Hoppe, Franz Kafka, Stanislaw Lem, Ljudmila Stefanowna Petruschewskaja. Then I fall in love with music by Portishead & Massive Attack again and again and again....
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
A very special birthday on the way to Port Baikal traveling with the Circum-Baikal Railway, listening to a bunch of bearded men singing and playing guitar.
Teach, Learn, Share
Actually I love funny accents and grammar permutations - so if you want we can embrace poor English together! And I can teach you how to roll the russian RRR.
