Hi, I am Tanya!

A little serious disclaimer before you proceed: yes, my country of birth is Russia. Yet, I'm a European resident, I share European values and I do not support the war. I hope we'll understand each other :) now, back to the fun Tanya!

Hi, I'm an IT student in Hamburg, Germany. I have lived in five countries on two continents, I love traveling, and meeting locals is a much better way to explore places. I genuinely enjoy sharing, participating, engaging. I love writing songs, I do LARP and tabletop roleplaying games, play board games, have interest in video game industry. And not only that, I have a wide range of interest - for example, I really love talking about child psychology or watching videos about different parrot personalities. I'm pretty sure we will find something to talk about :)

I have the cutest boyfriend Henrik, who draws for a hobby and works in IT for a living. He is one of the coolest dungeon masters I know, and one day we will publish a book together. He doesn't have a Couchsufing account, but we are traveling together so I'm using mine :)

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I am not just looking for a place to stay; I am looking for new wonderful people I can meet, conversations I can have, knowledge I can absorb, fun we can have together. I love sharing. This is what Couchsurfing is about.

Centres d'intérêt

I enjoy music, video games, psychology, culture, languages, embroidery, photography, technology and science. I also play guitar and sing a bit :) I really enjoy mountain hikes, long walks and cycling tours. And animal watching, when they are not kept too constrained :)

Not a smoker, but own a shisha. Not a regular drinker, but enjoy delicious beer (in Germany, it's no more than enjoying a soft drink on a hot summer day).

And honestly, I really enjoy when people talk about something they are passionate about. I am almost 30 and I'm a student, which probably says something about my eagerness to learn :D

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

I once attended a wedding in a castle in Slovakia with a toy sword, a wizard dress and my two knight friends. We shouted "hazzah!" and pointed our swords at the sky any time the newlyweds kissed, or for any other reason. Cause why not?

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I can entertain you with an engaging conversation, be a good company on an adventure, can teach you to make a dreamcatcher, help around the house, cook something, show you a glance into the world of LARP, discuss your favorite Mass Effect moments, and give me a guitar and I will sing for you!
