My name is Maria. I was born in small town in Russia. When I was a child I can't imagine that the world is open and I will have opportinity to travel everewhere, to meet people, to know their culture. If I knew it I would learn English better at school. :-)

Most part of my life I am cheerful and open minded. I like to know something new. I am interested in art, literature, psychology between men and women.

I believe that every person can do what he dream about.
I know that accidents are not accidental.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When I travel alone it's the best way to explore the city, to find secret places, to know the culture and the most important to feel me as a citizien and fell the city.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite book is "War and Peace" by Leo Tolstoy because it shows person growth through his life.
Music depends by my mood but I like russian neoclassics lika Misha Mischenko and Ilya Beshevli.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can bring some russian culture to your house. For example, I cooked borsch (russian soup from beet) to my friends in Los Angeles and they were excited.
