I am open , curious and willing to exchange ideas. Believe that smile goes a long way

My friends say I am a true Gemini - seeking excitement, new experiences, easy-going and fun, yet sensible and think 2 much at times.

I love everything I do. And even if I don't something I try to look at it from a different angle, doing my best to appreciate it . In most cases it works

I have been teaching for about 10 years, having students from 4 to 70 y.o., which helps me to stay truly fascinated with the world !

Oh, and I love dogs! I can't have any now, thus every opportunity to caress, hug or cuddle with a dog is highly appreciated

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

...I am a post Soviet kid, raised in a country that used to be closed from the world for decades, which really affected its people. So, since childhood I was fascinated by the diversity existing out there, (yet I could see it on TV only). Now I am learning about the world, travelling the globe and meeting people. Couchsurfing seems to be the best for that! I haven't used it a lot so far, but I'm on my way :)))
