Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think if we don't focus our attention on differences we're a lot alike than different, still humans. I like learning about cultures and seeing things from different angles through eyes of locals. And I would love people to know about my country and its people more.

Interests

I'm a naturally curious person, so I have many interests. I like learning about how things work in general and I also think that sitting all the time is an unnatural thing to do. I enjoy running outside when it's warmer outside, practicing yoga, going for a hike or camping with my family.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love music in general, the kind depends on my mood. Among favorites are AnnenMayKantereit, Imagine Dragons, Arctic Monkeys, MAGIC GIANT, MISSIO, George Ezra, Vance Joy, twenty one pilots, A R I Z O N A, Álvaro Soler, Loïc Nottet, Sidoine, Ilya Beshevli, Knife Party, Curbi, Tom Rosenthal, Yellow Claw, Melanie Martinez, Halsey, Tom Odell, Josef Salvat, AWOLNATION, MARINA, Giant Rooks and many more.

Lately read more nonfiction but I love fiction too. The Harry Potter and The Witcher series are the best! One of the perks of knowing Russian is reading Russian classics in the original. I'm a picky reader but it can be anything from myths and folklore to economics, psychology, history, biology, and so on. Always looking for more to read.

Movies based on real life stories, biographies, and something for soul. I like TV series and documentaries as well. Prefer to watch in the original language with/without subtitles.

Proud to say my younger sister loves books because of me😂 That's the amazing thing.
