I am from Belarus, but living in Turkey.

I like coffee and silence. I am not ambitious, I am constantly looking for the harmony of my inner world and outer. My soul is balancing between the thirst for adventure and need for solitude. But in spite of this I like variety of polyphonic world outside my personal space, and sometimes I am happy to join the general movement.

I love freedom.
I trust people.
I believe in love.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Diversity of cultures and landscapes turns my head, opportunity to get in touch with it excites my heart, but comprehension how little I've seen depresses me and at the same time pushes for action. I would like to travel as much as possible in order to see more and feel deeply. Now I think nothing is impossible. So here I am.

I believe that every journey is first of all the people we meet in our way. I like fearless, free-thinking and open-minded people. They're here!

Interests

I love to perceive!

I become really crazy when I read/hear about cultures, countries, traditions... What I really like is to learn something new about that.
Now I am mostly interested in East culture - Turkey, Middle East and Asia as well.
