Hey! My name is Yura.

I am the first year student of master program at Gubkin State University of Oil and Gas. I like to meet interesting people and visit atmospheric places. I have already been to Germany, Italy and Spain (three times there!!! I love Spanish people and the country too)
.
My hobby is poetry, so I am pursuing of inspiration just every day I live.
Lots of things can inspire me, but books and journeys most of all. If you can understand me, I am living a kind of my "second life" reading and travelling.
And, of course, no effect can can be made without people with their smiles, emotions, voices and wonderful stories of life.
My life's saying is: "Whatever happens, happens for the best".

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am young, fresh and seek for adventures!
My mission is to visit as many countries as I can.
But I am not looking just for places, but for local people there. Sometimes it turns out people are much more interesting. My university life is taking place at the dormitory, so I feel the people can best learn things about each other when they live together.
One friend of mine has already been to 20 countries for 2 past years. And he made me to change my mind to travelling. So couchsurfing for me is the noble way to meet people and find greatest among them.

Interests

Poetry, reading, oil&gas industry, longboard riding, jogging and a little photography.
Today my primary goal is to become a high-quality specialist in oil&gas production enhancement. I am reading and translating tonnes of technical papers to make my first step in the space of science with my first review published.
