Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When I travel I like to connect to locals and see city from their perspective. I am urbanist, so I am very curious how things work in your city. I just love to see TRUE places, how city lives and breathes.

Interests

I love making videos and stop motion animation https://vimeo.com/modakvoda/videos. Also photography. I am creative person.

I was self tought to play guitar and then ukulele. I love hiking, mountains, to sleep under the stars, quiet talks by the fire. Like bike-trips, any activity connected with location changing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Most vivid impression that changed my world view, was a trip with a tent in the Crimea. I was 17. There I felt the taste of travel, freedom of spirit.
And hiking in the night through mountains - full of adrenaline!
