About Me

In professional life I have music pedagogy bachelor degree, now I'm working as nanny, so I could say, that my life isn't boring at all! I love to keep being positive, discover new places and meet new people.

I love this phrase - "It doesn't interest me what you do for a living. I want to know what you ache for and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart's longing. It doesn't interest me how old you are. I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool for love, for your dream, for the adventure of being alive." [Oriah Mountain Dreamer]

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

You will never know how friendship can help you in your life. :)

But actually, as I was living in my parents place, then since 14 years old I moved to other city because of piano and have lived in dormitory for 10 years, then when I finished university I have decided to change I country and all this time I wasn't [I'm not] able to host somebody, but it always was my dream, and I think when I will finish my au-pair thing there in France I will be able to host other people from other countries, because what I have found about other cultures from last years, that every person can make your mind richer and richer because you get to know more and more different things.

It's always easy to book a hostel or hotel when you're travelling, but I prefer to be hosted by someone because the local person can give tips, advices and you can spend some time together! I had been hosted by host from this page only once - in Paris, last year - so I can tell you, that it really works! It's amazing when after full day of discovering the city you can just sit with somebody in the bar, or at home, have a drink and share your experience what you have found from discovering places or just have easy talk together about cultures differents and etc. :)

Interests

In my free time I'm dancing blues and lindy hop, also had tried salsa basics. I like long walkings in nature/hiking and discover new places with unique architecture.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like lots styles of music. Now my favourite music is old jazz (especially blues, swing era), also I enjoy ambient, chillout and etc., then sometimes remember hard rock but for last few years I prefer for a live concerts of this music style. And I always like when music playing all around me. :)

About movies - now I mostly watching TV shows - "Grey's anatomy", "The Black List" and a few of fantastic.
But from normal moves I love LOTR and HP sagas, A Beautiful Mind, American Pie and other.

I love to read books too, just sometimes there isn't enough time or I just have a problem - when I start to read a book, then I CAN'T STOP TO READ IT!!.. But mostly I'm reading detectives, fantasy, adventurous books. :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sometimes I'm starting to laugh from very small things. One of this happened in 2015 February, when I was walking in Strasbourg's oldtown with friend, don't remember why, but started to laugh and had laughed for.. 10 minutes. In the middle of street. :D Mostly I'm serious, but sometimes it happens and then I'm laughing and everyone around is laughing. It's funny. :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm professional musician, have music pedagogy diploma, so you can imagine that I love to teach. :D But normally I can talk about music, languages - love to discuss how one or other language has born and etc..
I love to cook, there wasn't anybody who could said that he/she hates my food. Everyone loves it and I don't know why.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can cook anything from any products! I'm cooking amazing potatoes' pancakes, believe me. ;)
