CURRENT MISSION

Around the world in 80 markets

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in fairness; that you shouldn't do or say things that you wouldn't want others to do or say.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Wonderful, amazing, beyond any expectations - I used to think I was totally a person who 'needs her space'; all changed since I tried the CS.

Interests

I love everything related to food - not original, I know, but I feel alive when it comes to food (no pun intended;) - eating, yes:), but more generally anything related to production of food, its origins, history, different cultures etc.

I have a degree in Psychology, so my interests in food and travelling are kind of interlinked - I am interested in how all these things are connected, people's motivations etc. Basically, love talking to people and asking questions - and no, I won't know what you think!:):)

• dining
• traveling
• history
• psychology

Music, Movies, and Books

Some examples, just to begin with:

Films: The lives of Others, 9 and 1/2 weeks, Last tango in Paris, The wings of desire, The sin city; I love obsecure european and sometimes east-asian art films.

Books - I am Russian, so Russian classics are in my blood I'm afraid:) apart from that - gosh, lots of different stuff, histories of countries (and foods!), trashy novels, speritiual, Castaneda-like, tales etc. I'm lucky in having a husband with a juuuge library;) so whenever I feel like reading, I just say 'I feel like....':)

Music - I'll just mention one band for now - I used to be a really big fan of Depeche mode...*gingerly giggles* not that much any more, but I still think they represent what I am somehow.
