My full name is Lebedieva Valeriya. At first I am a bit shy, but always very polite and kind. After a few hours i can be the best guest EVER. I can be funny and i can talk a lot. I started studying medicine in Ukraine but after 3 years studying i realized that it wasn't my favourite degree so i decided to move out from Ukraine to Germany. Nowadays I am studying Psychology in Mannheim, Germany. I grew up in Donetsk but i had to leave this city for many reasons. I like to talk about all the topics and I like to know the culture and the habits of the country i'm visiting as a local. I am living in a dorm in shared appartment with 4 guys. Unfortunatelly my room is really small and has only one bed, that's why I can't host people at the moment. But if you are easygoing and ready to share the room with me and the bathroom with my neigbors I could ask one of them about mattress for you :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is the best website to know the countries as a local. One of the reason why a lot of people is using it is because you can get accomodation for free. For me it is the second best point. The first one is to visit the country/city as a local. The most beautiful places are not the most touristics ones, and to know them, a local has to recomend you.
Actually i did couchsurfing only once and it wa awesome. The last years i focused in studying german and in my studies, so i didn't have enough time to travel and do couchsurfing.

Interests

My favourite hobbit is traveling, of course. But I dont have enough time to visit all the countries i would like to. I have visited many countries and i want to know more about the world.
I like to write as well. I use to write my experiences travelling and my thoughts about different topics as well. Also i like to write good references to the nice hosts. ;)

Teach, Learn, Share

Russian is a very interesant language, isn't it? haha so i can try to teach you some russian words. And i would like to learn everything you can teach me. I like to have deep conversations about the life, so if you are an entusiastic on these topics we can share our thoughts about it.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share a lot of nice conversations. But you have to learn how to understand me! not because my tricky vocabulary, but because my limitated vocabulary. But come on, if you can learn russian in a few days we can talk in russian, or in german as well :)
