About me, well, I love life. I like to consider myself as a really open minded person, I'm really curious about other people's life styles and I love learning new things in general.
Enjoy travelling abroad as you, going to places where I haven't been before. Love meeting new people and connecting with locals, when I'm traveling, and showing my town to the foreigners when I'm at home.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet and share unique experiences with all the cool people around the world!

Interests

Love traveling and love comparing notes.

Love reading books.

Love doing yoga. I have attended different yoga studios for the last 9 years already. Now I prefer doing hot yoga. The peculiarity of this kind of yoga is that temperature is 40 degrees and humidity 60 percents indoors.

I love my turtle. He is 23 years old. His name is Max. In 1997 my schoolmate asked me to look after him for two weeks while she was enjoying her holiday with parents. And after that she never asked this turtle back and he stayed with me. Max has lived with me for 22 years already. Usually turtles live in house conditions for around 7 years. But decent care makes a miracle:)

Music, Movies, and Books

I seldom read a news. I enjoy reading books about self development, psychology and narrative literature.
