About Me

ABOUT ME

I enjoy traveling and am always glad to meet new people. I consider being curious and adapting myself to someone else's daily life, habits and traditions, the best way to have a glimpse on the surrounding environment (and viceversa). I can be talkative but will always give attention to what a person wants to communicate to me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Please, when writing a request, tell me why you'd stay at my place or at least give any information about your idea of Couchsurfing, to see if I think it could match with mine.

That's another reason why I recommend you to write about yourself in your profile, especially if you're new here and/or have no reference ;)

Interests

Trying to be a decent human being and somehow fighting for a better world.

Not doing much sport but still enjoy biking, hiking and yoga. Unfortunately I've never had the chance of practicing constantly and intensively any of them, nonetheless is still amazing for me to hike somewhere where there's no person to be seen and spend the night there.
I'm always ready to party, no matter whether outside or not, spontaneous other planned: no need of any fancy place, just need a sincere entertaining company (although wine is always welcome!)
Good food: I'm really into food culture and love it when people are willing to share it (I can literally spend hours talking about food); while traveling I always prefer to try local food (isn't it sometimes one of the best ways to get closer to people and their culture?)
Smile at me, take me to a show or drink a good beer with me: you'll see an happy person.
I enjoy both urban and natural landscapes (sometimes I take Lo-Fi pictures of them, just to keep a trace for me to find again a memory of the sensation of being there).
Still have no idea about what I'd like to become "when I grow up"..I'd just like to be still around at that point, if it'll come!
I couldn't point any literature as 'my favorite', and the same I would say about music and modern figurative art.
Just as an example, I do go quite often to punk shows but still enjoy classical music and opera a lot.
I find it very difficult to be sharp and precise in self descriptions, sorry! Hopefully I'm not as boring as it seems by reading here, and I'm for sure talkative. Really talkative.

Everything I just wrote was to give you all the idea of how I always feel like knowing new things and meeting new people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Going to Fluff fest every year and join the warmest friendship gathering I could've ever imagined.

Teach, Learn, Share

I work as an interpreter and language teacher, so I can surely give tips about Language learning and help with the first steps into Russian, Italian, German and French language.
As I've been playing piano for long, I guess I can help with that, too. The same with cooking & so.
I'm glad to share everything I can, here it's hard for me to write down a list of things that I can offer, though :)

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Iceland, Latvia, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Russian Federation, Singapore, Slovakia, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, Thailand, United States, Viet Nam

Countries I’ve Lived In

Germany, Italy, Russian Federation
