Hi! My name is Sofia. I've been studying Scandinavian philology at Saint Petersburg State University for two years and now I am an exchange student in Bergen, Norway.
In my free time I enjoy longboarding, strolling around Saint Petersburg, taking cool (not) photos on my film camera and planning my future trips :)
I'm also fond of literary translation and have worked with the non-profit organization "Scandinavian kaleidoscope" which provides Russian and English subtitles for Scandinavian tv-series.
I advocate for eco-friendly lifestyle and I'm trying my best to reduce consumption of plastic materials and encourage recycling in my home country.

Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

I'm interested in learning about people, cultures and languages!
Also while traveling I want to stay with locals because it's the best way to capture the essence of different countries.

Музыка, кино и книги

I'm a movies lover and particularly interested in European and Russian cinema. David Lynch, Michelangelo Antonioni, Michael Haneke and Andrey Zvyagintsev are my favorite film directors.

I read a lot of literature since it's related to my future specialization and I especially like Russian and Norwegian modern prose.

I'm also keen on music and listen to everything: from Tom Waits to Arcade Fire.
