Overview
About Me
A seeker - that would be the most accurate description. Seeking for experiences, ways to express myself, inspiring people, unknown places and also just books, music, art and mostly - beauty - in all it's forms.
As I already mentioned, I am very fond of art, fashion, movies and traveling and I guess it goes with my character, because through each of those phenomenons you can experience a different life, live a new one. One of my greatest gifts and also greatest flaws is that I am interested in so many things, that it is hard for me to stay loyal to only one interest. Therefore I could never get a tattoo, I would get sick of it the week after (although I love them on other people).
But - in conclusion - that's what I love about life, the paradox of it. There are no rules, except only in our perceptions. As Frida Kahlo once said, "I would like to be my own person". A calm yogi and an eccentric artist in the same person. Buddha and Salvador Dalí. Why not?
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Hotels - those are for tourists. I wish to be a traveller, a seeker. In my opinion, the best way to experience and explore an unknown culture is through real people, not hotel guides. And after all - if one can open their door to other people just for the sake of fun or kindness instead of money (which seems to make the world go round these days)- I think that makes our world a better place.
Interests
When I was in 6th grade, I sort of fell into art, and haven't been able to get out of it since. I have been studying it since I was 12, and just recently I graduated from college as a fashion designer. Right now I wish to continue with studies in painting BA.
And an other major interest - music. I play the guitar a little bit, but all in all, music is one of the things that I can only enjoy, because unfortunately I think I am not gifted enough to take part in creating it C:

Music, Movies, and Books
My taste in music is very eclectic. I still listen to Nirvana and Placebo, which were my favourite bands of my teenage years, I also enjoy more electronic music such as Gold Panda, The Acid, Howling, Hot Chip, as well as more experimental music, such as Bjork, Sigur Ros, CocoRosie, and also something blues-like, for example, The Black Keys, The White Stripes etc. Eclectic enough, huh?
