About Me

I don't know what to write here exactly :) As far as I hear from the people around, I am a funny girl who is easy to get along with. I like reading classical literature, and watching movies from all over the world. I can speak English fluently, and now trying to learn German.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am really interested with cross-cultural issues. It may be even the most exiciting thing in the world for me if i can learn something new from a person who comes from a different area. I like to talk about similarities and differences between languages, cultural practices, different ways of thinking, traditions and so on. When I travel to another country I want also to learn about all these little things and also in general about the life there. And, meeting new people from that land gives you a nice opportunity for this. And, Couchsurfing is a nice tool to meet local people :)
