CURRENT MISSION

Life is short, so live it to the fullest! Trying to enjoy it and escape routine :)

ABOUT ME

They called me angel face, devil, crazy and cute. And they were right :D
I am not looking for craziness but craziness is looking for me! I am a lazy worcaholic. Love weird people and strange things.
I am glad to meet people with different opinions about everything, who can discuss deep topics about life at night, and people who use their brains ;)

PHILOSOPHY

We've got limited time here and we have no idea what's going on and what we are doing here. So why would we waste our time on work that we don't enjoy, people who distreat us, earning money for buying new Iphone every year....

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Couchsurfing plays a huge role in my life! Especially when I was traveling for 16 months. I've met a lot of great people through it and hopefully many of them will be able to visit me in Istanbul.

Of course, it's not a secret that some people consider Cs as a dating website, or there are many people who are very strange (in a bad meaning of this word)... but there is still a huge possibility to meet amazing friends who are like diamonds in this world! That's why I don't give up on Cs.

I might not be able to host people all the time, but I am really trying to do my best for travellers.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I started to use couchsurfing in 2012 when met Brazilian girl who worked in Ukraine. That was my first experience and we became friends. We still keep in touch and plan to meet someday somewhere again.
After that I've been hosted in Crimea, Istanbul and Tbilisi and had a very nice time with my hosts!
And in 2015 I've started my long trip in Asia and South America! During that trip I became very active couchsurfer. I have surfed in 12 countries of the trip and have never had any bad experience so far and would love to keep using it and meeting more interesting people from all over the world!

Interests

As most of the people here on Cs, my biggest hobby is traveling, of course :) But not in the meaning of visiting all places from guidebook and taking selfies there :) I like to be somewhere where tourists go rarely, sometimes I skip very famous places (for example, Taj Mahal in India). I like to have adventures without knowing what will happen to me at the end of the day.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite movie is probably "Eternal shine if spotless mind". I have watched it few times! If you also like it, we can be friends automatically :D Also I like "Knowcking on heaven's door", "Atonement", "Mr.Nobody". Acutally, i really love movies with Leonardo Di Caprio :) They always are unpredictable and make me worry like it's happening for real :)

Music is more complicated because I like a lot of different genres, mostly rock, latin music and some weird staff that I have no idea how to call it... Can show you when we meet ;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In September, 2015 me and my boyfriend at that time, have quited jobs and started our long amazing trip around the world. We've been to Russia, Mongolia, Hong Kong, Philippines, Malaysia, Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, India. After India we have moved to Brazil where we planned to start a 2nd part - southamerican, but had to split. Later I continued traveling in Brazil (where I found a paradise, piece and harmony) for 5 months, then Argentina and Chile (another fav country!). It took me 16 months!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you basics of Russian language and Cyrillic alphabet. You can practise English with me, too.

Foreigners know more about the city than locals because we are curious to visit more places. Even I showed some spots to my Turkish friends :)

I can share my travel experience and tell you many different stories.

Also would love to learn about your country, your culture and places of interest there :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share a meal with a host and of course stories from travels! :)
