Hey! I'm Masha, Maria, Mary, Marie, as you wish, but originally it's Masha.
I'm a university student from Russia, learn languages (English, German, Japanese) and study psycholingui​stics and psychology..​. but don't worry - I never treat people as psychos having neuroses and all...lol It's only a myth about those who study psychology :P
I like talking with people, doing what's interesting for me, I love riding my favourite mountain bike, having fun in the city, reading and etc.

hmm really don't know what to say, so I'm going to borrow the idea of most people on this site and just say - ask me if you want to know :P

I'm looking for interesting people to talk with and for good friends.. only.

People with a good sense of humour are especially welcome ;)

I speak a very strange English (I call it "pardon​ ma russian english"​), some German, a very poor Japanese and the worst Russian in the world..
So.. If I still can help you with anything - I'm at your disposal.
Would like to learn any language of any country which you can find in my Interests/Ho​bbies list below.
Also I'm collecting common phrases from all languages (kind of 'hello' and 'happy birthday' things) so yeah, you're welcome to ask me how I'm doing in any language (with translation if possible).
Thank you very much!

I like: cycling, swimming, walking, reading, music, friends, science, culture, countries, geography, animals, nature, mountains, astronomy, history, traditions, Scotland, Ireland, Russia, England, Europe, Denmark, Germany, Austria, Finland, Norway, Sweden, Iceland, the Eastern Europe, New Zealand, Australia, Netherlands,​ the Highlands, Japan, the 60s, languages, British dialects, writing letters, reading, dreaming, travelling, trains and etc...

i'm a crazy fan of the bonnie Scotland and Ireland, of Gaelic and the Scottish highlanders,​ the sheep and kilts, so just think i should warn you, i might be talking too much about it.....

different, from rock'n'roll of the 60's and blues to electronica and techno. mostly it's rock, indie, electronica,​ shoegazing, pop, brit pop, funk, drum'n'bass,​ reggae, punk, and the mixtures ;) And I love the BAGPIPE!!!!!​ ;)

My fav USA films are "Back to the future"​ and "You've​ got mail" but there are many others I like as well!
And I like German and British films also, I love
English classics like Jeeves&W​ooster and Poirot by Agatha Christie, and English modern films like those
by Guy Ritchie ;) And German films
e.g. Good bye, Lenin!, Nichts als Gespenster and others.
And my fav Japanese anime is "My Neighbour Totoro"​ (となりのトトロ).

The IT Crowd, A Bit of Fry & Laurie, Dr. House, My Name is Earl, the Mighty Boosh..

Tolstoy's 'Anna Karenina', Bulgakov and other Russian classics, Oscar Wilde, O'Henry, Arthur Conan Doyle, etc etc. I also really like science fiction like Ray Bradbury, Douglas Adams, Herbert Wells and some Russian writers that you probably don't know. I like the good old funny classic stories like 'Three men in a boat' by Jerome K. Jerome.
