Hi!

So first things first - I am fully vaccinated, got my booster in May:)

I used to be an English teacher and worked wih kids for a few years. Right now I'am volunteering in a nursing home in Austria as a part of European Solidarity Corps project.

I consider myself to be an open-minded person with a sense of humor, I love travelling and meeting different people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I don't want to just explore new places, I want to explore people, their culture, life style, way of thinking etc. And I think couchsurfing is the best way to do it. Unfortunately I can't host right now, but as soon as I get a chance I would love to start doing it, because my experience (little, but still) with couchsurfing was amazing.

Music, Movies, and Books

oh, that's so hard

ok, music: indie rock, pop, alternative rock, pop rock

books: I love classic literature, contemporary fiction, poetry. Top authors that I read the most would be Jane Austen, Stephen King, Anna Akhmatova. Favourite book at the moment is The Defense by Nabokov.

movies: I'm not sure I have a fovurite one, ususally it is the last one I liked:) So, right now it would be "Anne with an E", few weeks ago it was "Lost in translation"
