About Me

Just a simple girl from Russia who's got too itchy feet to sit at home :) Being young and lively, I'm trying to seize every opportunity to broaden my horizons and to explore the world because this is what makes us richer, doesn't it? ;)

In short about myself:

- translator
- traveller
- dancer
- ukulele player
- book lover
- extrovert :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Studying intercultural communication in the university, I got interested in languages, different cultures and history. For me travelling the world means not only seeing the sights, but also meeting new people, who can show their lifestyle and tell about their traditions. Couchsurfing is a perfect idea for me because I aspire to see all the cultural things with my own eyes and to share my own experience with other travellers and native people. In return I will be happy to show my own city and to tell about it :)

Interests

I'm crazy about Latin American culture and latin dances. Salsa, bachata, cha-cha-cha, samba - this is what makes me feel alive!
My dream is to visit Cuba and Brazil and to see the Rio Carnival with my own eyes. One day I'll make my dream come true :)
