About Me

I'm positive girl who loves true travelling (i mean without standard hotels/buses/tourist groups etc.):
prefer hitchhiking, sudden meetings, unexpected situations and conversations, just improvising while exploring the World and diving directly into culture people all around me.
I'm going learn Spanish and arrange my own trip around all Latin America and one another around SouthEast Asia: you know, Thailand, India, Laos, Malaisia and through Indonesia to Australia — that's my goal for now.
I think, we are living while travelling, getting new experience and feel the moment.
Some specific joyful fear causing by expanding your comfort zone : that's what makes people individuals.

Vegetarian by the way :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I literally need interesting people in country i exploring, who can talk, explain and share their city with me (maybe just couple of hours, or the whole week : doesn't matter).
I like listen amazing stories from all kinds of people, sharing my unique experience and compose my own world vision on their impressions & feelings.

Interests

I like computer science, programming games and going dive into Game-Development. Also like oeuvre: write poetry, stories, travel notes and some drawing. (what a paradoxical person?)

One more thing that i can't live without: Adventures, and any extreme activities (like parachute, rope jumping, hitch-hiking, alpinism and so on): it's actually drug for me.
Height, Speed, Freedom. Looking perfect pictures of mother nature. Living any emotions, dancing different styles (pole-dance, club dancing, dancehall, twerking...).
Wanna learn how dance to latina and tango! :)
