ABOUT ME

Well, a very good way to judge about a person according to what he\she says about himself\herself, isn't it?.. :-))))) but if I have to drop some lines about myself, let's say so: I want to believe people around me, my friends and colleagues can say that I'm open, honest, tolerant and easygoing, polite and tactful, sincere and passionate... maybe sometimes too much :-)
when possessed by some new passion for... something - hobby or idea or ... anything! :-))

I like to listen to people's stories! And when you can just sit next to someone and feel comfortable keeping silence... I adore the moments when I feel being on the same wave with somebody, feeling soul affinity with a friend.

PHILOSOPHY

You are never given a wish without also being given the power to make it true. You may have to work for it, however.
Richard Bach

Be the change you want to see in the world.
Mahatma Gandhi

Only two things we'll regret on deathbed - that we are a little loved and little traveled.
Mark Twain

Il tuo unico dovere e' salvare i tuoi sogni.
Amedeo Modigliani

Whether You Think You Can or Can't, You're Right.
Henry Ford

In my younger and more vulnerable years my father gave me some advice that I've been turning over in my mind ever since. "Whenever you feel like criticizing any one," he told me, "just remember that all the people in this world haven't had the advantages that you've had."
"The great Gatsby" by F. Scott Fitzgerald

I believe in the Laws of the Universe... if you make the world better somehow, sincerely, with the open heart, with your help or a smile or a little present to another person, the Universe will reward you somehow. Everything comes back to a person, in this or another way.

The decisions should be taken quickly - and those which seem to be most absurd: it's the only way to change the imposed course of events... Let's?... :-)

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Till now I've been participating only as a guest surfing couches (and it has always been great!) but if I had a possibility, I would host for sure but I can’t promise that as I live with my family, and it depends also on them. But reading the profiles of other people here, I see so many interesting bright people whom I really would like to get in touch with... that I hope I will be able to host as well! ;-)

Anyway our city is not much of a touristic attraction, but as there are many industrial plants here in Cherepovets, people from different countries come here on business. So we can have a walk or drop at some café together! I would be happy to be the part of your journey because I consider communication a real treasure!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Till now - always positive... The only "hard" thing about CS - it's always sad to leave people who have become your friends.

兴趣

I adore travelling! Learning foreign languages, sports (like work-outs/cycling/skiing/ice-skating...), hiking, cooking (it can be a kind of creative work for me, and I love to be inspired to cook :), exploring new places - kilometers days and nights, cinema and theatre, reading....
I prefer having a close talk with a close friend than staying in big companies and noisy places. Anyway parties can be okay, and meetings are welcome :) as everywhere one can find friends.
Volunteering. In different spheres. If you have some idea let me know :)

Enjoy life!
And trying to make the world better. At least a bit :)

音乐、电影和书籍

Music.... I have periods when I open something new for me, and then I listen to it day and night... (even if it has been famous for long =))

I add songs which n different moments so then I have a strange combination of songs
What do I like... well, Cafe del Mar - music for any moment! =))
Andrea Bocelli, ...

I love reading, but again I have periods when I devour books and periods when I'm crazy about something else - studying Italian (well... actually I'm always "in it") or embroidering... :-) Only doing something for my pleasure (it can be studying or doing sports) is a real rest for me!

As for the books... About ten years ago I would say: S.Maugham and A.Camus. But haven't came back to them for years... sailing through something new for me...
I respect Salinger and G.G.Marquez.
S.Dovlatov.
A. Solzhenitsyn

教，学，和分享

I can teach you some Russian if you want ;-) Or maybe you want to learn how to cook some traditional Russian dish? Like borshch or something else?... ;-)))

I love Italian, I study it myself, and I hope my future travels to Italy will help me to improve it!

I'm eager to know more about different countries, their culture, cuisines, traditions, everything!
