About Me

In 2010 my life changed. I started traveling. First it was a hike in the Crimea, then in the mountains of the Urals. Then I went to Serbia, Montenegro, Italy. Then I discovered couchsurfing. I liked to communicate with people from other countries, especially if these people with me on the same wave. I love to go to the mountains with a backpack, I stick to the idea of lightweight backpacking. Almost all my friends travel. And who sits at home, he gradually disappears from my environment.

I am married, with Julia we met in the hike. For several years we were dancing: Blues. Then dance school closed this type of dance and we stopped dancing. In my school years I was dancing breakdance.

I work as an Internet advertising (Google Ads) specialist in a marketing Agency.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When you live at the couchsurfing host you can feel the rhythm of the city, the way local people live. In general it's usually good, kind people. When I invite you to my place, I understand what the traveler needs, because I myself often am in the role of a guest. Wash, relax, get information about the city, eat, walk.

It is always a great practice of English.

Interests

My Hobbies are poker, rogaining, swimming, reading fiction. I like to know something new, that's why I use: slackline, hammock, orienteering, lightweight backpacking etc. I started doing yoga in morning in city parks from summer 2019 and I have my favorite routine everyday.
I I want to learn how to paraglide. It is very romantic and beautiful to see on landscape from the sky.
I have dream to become thru-hiker and pass Pacific Crest Trail in USA.
